Not per se, but in one instance, I do know of a priest who has performed a funeral for a non-baptized spouse of a Catholic. You would have to speak to your pastor about this.

Your child is not christened but you want him to be brought up as a catholic?
Someone who is not baptized can still be educated in Catholic beliefs, however they will not be able to Holy Communion at mass. It is necessary for them to be baptized before they're really considered a Catholic.
Are Catholics christened?
A:A Catholic is someone who belongs to, or accepts the teachings of, the Roman Catholic Church. He or she will no doubt have been christened, but so are members of other Christian Churches.Catholic AnswerA Catholic is someone who has been baptized in the Catholic Church, OR someone who has been validly baptized outside the Church in the name of the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) with water running on the forehead, or immersion, and with the intention to do what the church does. In the later case, that person would have to be accepted into the Church by a formal act and be confirmed by the bishop. I guess it really depends on what you mean by "christened".
Can someone not baptised attend a Catholic church?
No, to be a Godparent at a Catholic baptism one must be a baptized and practicing Catholic. However, you may also have another sponsor in addition to the Catholic Godparent. That second person does NOT have to be Catholic. Technically, they probably don't need to be christened, but what would be the point of having someone be a Godparent who does not believe in Christ?

Can a non-Catholic person participate in a Catholic funeral like the draping of the pall on the casket?
Absolutely. A Catholic funeral is an inclusive rite that is supposed to include all the friends and family of the deceased. The only limitation the Church places is to prevent anything that is blasphemous. Despite what the Church wants, each funeral is planned or organized by someone who may have their own ideas or who may have clouded judgment due to grief. So if you're being excluded its not because of any rules the Church might have.

Should you attend a funeral of a person you did not know simply because your husband's sister is related through marriage?
Everyone has a different attitude to these types of situations, I can only answer this personally. I would not go to the funeral of someone I didn't know, simply because I know someone that knew them. The exception to this would be going in order to support the person that knew the deceased (i.e. your husbands sister) if they felt they needed it and you were both close.
