To an extent, yes.
The North American black bear populations in southern California, Arizona, New Mexico, western Texas, and Northern Mexico have been known to dwell the deserts, but don't live there permanently, and usually live in national parks nearby.
Also, when grizzly bear populations were more plentiful in previous times, they were known to live in the desert as well. The Atlas bear, which is now extinct, also lived in the North African deserts.
There is a rare species of bear that does live in a desert. The Gobi bear, a subspecies of Brown bear, does live in the Gobi Desert, though it is rare.
How do polar bears find and eat food?
Polar Bears are expert hunters. They usually hunt in areas that interface between ice and water. They rarely hunt in open water. They use a technique called "Still Hunting". They use their excellent sense of smell to locate a seal breathing hole and wait for the seal to appear. When the Seal comes out to breathe, the bear smells its breath, reaches into the hole with its front paws and drags it out of the water. They kill the seal by biting its head. They often raid the birth lairs of female seals and prey on the seal pups. They are extremely powerful and can even kill an adult walrus.
Polar bears find their food commonly with their excellent sense of smell. If they are hungry enough they will eat almost any animal they can get.

Firstly, we must look at the grizzly bear. The grizzly is an inland race of the brown bear, and is smaller than the polar bear on average. However, other brown bear races such as the Kodiak bear, are just as large or larger than polar bears.
The Polar bear is the longest (up to 11 feet) but the Grizzly can outweigh them by 500 pounds and grow about 3 - 4 inches taller at the shoulder. So I would say the Polar bear.
