Provided this is a dairy cow you are referring to, and the calf has been taken away and fed milk replacer, the optimum length of time a cow can be "artificially stimulated" to produce milk is 10 months.

Is a cow pregnant if its udders are full and all the other heifers udders are normal?
A cow is a mature female bovine that has had a calf. A heifer is a female bovine that has not had a calf. Therefore there are two possibilities: one, the cow you are referring to already had a calf and is still lactating, and she's in with the heifers (that are probably just weaned) to keep them calm. Two, yes she could be, but it's hard to say since you are referring to her as a cow and not a heifer.

Do sea cows have udders?
No. Heifer calves only have four little nipples/teats where the udder will be after they have their first calf. Heifer calves, when the do become mothers themselves, are no longer considered heifer calves, or a calf at all, but rather a cow or a first-calf heifer. Their udder typically begins to form during the last trimester of pregnancy (if a heifer does indeed get settled after reaching puberty), and will become swollen with milk once her first calf arrives, making her ready and able to give milk after giving birth.
Is a cow eating grass which is turned into milk?
Not necessarily. Cows produce milk to feed their calf. They're artificially inseminated to make them pregnant, and thus they produce the milk upto, and after the birth. Whatever food they eat - whether that's naturally-grown grass, or artificially produced feeds - gives them the energy, vitamins and minerals they need to produce the milk.
