The easy answer is No they could not. We didn't technically "come from monkeys" we evolved from a common ancestor of monkeys but evolved differently. We also had a common ancestor as tigers, yet that was further up the evolutionary chain, this is shown because we are both mammals. Unfortunately, even if we used evolution to evolve new species from humans, it would go to something new, more able to survive in the particular environment they faced at that time. Tigers evolved to fit their exact ecosystem and so it would require the a new evolution of a tiger's ancient ancestors and the same climatic and environmental situations for something to evolve the same way that caused tigers to come about. I know this isn't very clear, but its a very in depth part of Biology. There are a number of texts that you can check out from your local library or from Google that would explain evolution and why different animals evolved differently.
