There is no definitive laboratory test for lupus. A diagnosis of lupus is based on:
1. Medical history
2. Symptoms
3. A variety of tests
4. Process of elimination
Since these things cannot be done on a fetus, the answer is no, lupus cannot be detected prenatally.
No because there is no definitive test for lupus. Even if a person is genetically predisposed to develop lupus, they might not ever develop it. There are numerous cases of identical twins where one develops lupus and the other does not. Even if you could diagnosis the possibility of developing lupus in a fetus, that is no guarantee that the disease will develop.
prenatally
No; in the future this may be possible.

Lupus is not caused by a pathogen. Lupus is not contagious.
is lupus infectious
20 percent of people with lupus will have a parent or sibling who already has lupus or may develop lupus.
Cutaneous lupus which is often called discoid lupus.
Lupus nephritis is one of the common (40%) complications of systemic lupus erythematosus. The other types of lupus are neonatal (affecting newborns), discoid or cutaneous (affecting the skin and hair), and drug induced (which subsides when the offending drug is withdrawn). If you have lupus nephritis, then you have lupus.
There is no lupus gene. At this point, researchers have found 30 loci (locations) on the human genome that are implicated in the development of lupus.
There are no immunizations for lupus because lupus is not contagious. Immunizations protect you from pathogens. Lupus is not caused by a pathogen, therefore there is no possibility of immunization.
