No. Most heifers haven't even reached puberty at that age, much less are even large enough to be bred to. And even if a heifer has reached puberty at that age, her pelvic area and body size is still too small to be able to be bred at that age. You MUST give her more time to grow (another 7 or 8 months is highly recommended) before you can breed her.

Such animals may not reach sexual maturity until 15 to 20 months of age, respectively, or more.Note that age of puberty to rate of maturity is like comparing apples to oranges: they are two different traits, one is not affected by the other.The average at which cattle reach puberty is about 11 to 13 months. Generally, a heifer is able to breed successfully at about 18 months. A bull can successfully breed at about the same age.
