Yes. Consult your local Orthodox rabbi. That rabbi will point you to an Orthodox rabbi who works with a beth din (Jewish court, consisting of 3 judges) that will supervise the conversion. Note that Orthodox conversion (like all conversions to Judaism under any branch of Judaism) is not simple. It requires on the order of a year of serious study, plus regular participation in Jewish services and, as you learn what you are getting into, increasing adherence to Jewish law and tradition. Furthermore, Jewish tradition requires that the potential convert be discouraged from conversion because it exposes you to the wrath of antisemites and because you don't need to be Jewish to be seen as righteous.
