No. You can pickle a cucumber (or other items like vegetables or even eggs), but this involves a chemical reaction which cannot be reversed.
Most pickling solutions contain spices, salt or vinegar which chemically alter the item being pickled.
It might be possible to remove some of the spices or pickling ingredients by soaking in water and rinsing, but you can never return a dill pickle, or other pickled cucumber, into a cucumber again.

∙ 10y agoA cucumber is always a cucumber, it does not cease to be a cucumber because you pickle it. However, if I understand your question you cannot unpickle a cucumber. Making a pickle requires cutting up the cucumber, soaking it in a brine (salt and water) solution for hours, making a seasoned syrup, heating the cucumber slices in the syrup, placing pickle slices in jars and processing in a hot water bath for approx. 10 minutes. You cannot undo this process.
