NO.
A fossil is essentially what is left after all the living tissue from a deceased organism is displaced by minerals and rock. Thus a fossil doesn't even have any remaining DNA, the genetic material of the organism that was fossilized.
Note, tooth enamel can be very durable, and may not be truly fossilized, or the fossilization process may be very slow. DNA has been recovered and analyzed from a 110,000-to-130,000-year-old polar bear tooth.
Oops,
Have to update. Although fossils are from animals that have long been dead, there are recent reports that original "soft tissue" is being recovered from the fossilized skeletal bones, and at least protein sequences are being recovered from 60-80 million year old fossils.
