A mutation usually is associated with the change in DNA pattern. Depending on the mutation (which can occur for various reasons such as radioactivity or birth defect), it might be deadly or harmless.

Where does the replication of mutated genes occur in human cells?

Absolutely, mutation can occur in any cell, human or non-human. Mutation has a number of causes, but radiation is probably the most significant. If the DNA is struck by radiation (even solar radiation, which is to say, sunlight) it will be altered, hence there is a mutation.

Can a human body accept another human body's DNA?

The answer is NO. You can modify a particular part of the DNA by mutation but an entirely different DNA cannot be incorporated into another DNA simply because DNA is present in each nucleated cell of the body and as there are millions and millions of such cells, its not possible to do it. :)
