Yes, if you include someone who is "brain-dead" . This would be synonymous with a vegetative state, where a persons vital functions of circulation and respiration are maintained by the medulla oblongata. Higher thinking functions and awareness controlled by the cerebral cortex is missing. Unlike someone in a coma, consciousness and self awareness beyond simple reaction to environmental stimuli do not return in a person in this state. Also, individuals in drowning situations where hypothermia lowers body temperature have been resuscitated even after an hour underwater , since lower temperatures have prevented oxidative processes from degrading the tissues.

What do you think of the possibility that with future technology we will live forever and resurrect the dead?
Not going to happen ever. We may see the time when humans can live over 100 on average but to live forever is impossible. Your body wears out, and that is the nature of things. No way will technology ever be able to keep us alive forever. As far as raising the dead only God can do that. Once you are dead you are dead and no technology can alter that state. You are brain dead in just 4 to 6 minutes after your heart stops beating. Once the brain is dead you are dead and nothing can change that. That cannot be reversed period.
