No. It is a federal law that no state or city in the US may allow polygamy. Having more than one wife is illegal in every state, although in Hawaii and Rhode Island it is only a misdemeanor with a small fine. Most other states it is a felony with at least 5 years in prison and at least $5,000 fine.
