Maybe. You could change your genes so that telomeres reproduce. Telomeres are enzymes at the end of your DNA that stop the division process from going wrong (cancerous cells). These enzymes are designed to shorten over time, so if you either stop them from shortening or make them lengthen forever you could achieve immortaality, though you would need to make and immune system that adapts when it senses a new type of virus or bacteria. Maybe also add in stuff like collagen replacement to stop wrinkles.
