Given an opportunity - Yes. But it is unlikely that a lion pride can hunt and kill a full grown elephant. However, they have been known to hunt down elephant calves and injured or old elephants that stray away from their herd. Practically speaking, there is no way a lion pride can bring down a full grown elephant.
