Yes, in some rare cases. If a married priest from another religion, such as Orthodox or Anglican, converts to Catholicism and decides to become a Catholic priest, he can remain 'married with children.' A Catholic who becomes a widower is also free to become a priest but would probably be advised to wait until any dependents are grown and on their own. There have been a few very rare cases where a priest has been allowed to adopt a child.
