I don't see how, especially with the newer "safer" NASA in charge. Maybe the Russians would try it, but what could they do?

I guess if they left enough propellant onboard to use thrusters to stabilize the beast so the Shuttle could dock, that might work. I don't know the propellant figures of late. I'm betting that is getting low as well.
