Can, but still in the research stage. If you want to try, you can freeze your body right after death.
The future technology may make you to resurrect, it is equal to time travel to the future, interesting!

Hmmm! No one really knows whether we can, could, should or will ever be able to hibernate. There are some very unhappy husbands (and wives no doubt - can not be sexist) that have given it a good try! The factors involved in hibernation are stocking up on food in the body, lowering body temperature and slowing the heart beat but mainly the desire to avoid some unpleasant environment. Now I deduce from these .. er .. facts that - a) humanoids probably have hibernated in the past - b) that there are thousands trying to hibernate at the present time - and c) that as science and business acumen develope, the ability to hibernate will be promoted for sale in the near future.

Because we have no need for hibernation. Some animals adapted the ability to hibernate. We don't need to because we have abundant food and warm homes.

We do hibernate. Most of them who did were called lazy.

The correct answer is that the human metabolism does not react to euthermic stimuli. Our metabolisms do not react to the external temperature. As we evolved, this was not a desirable (or survivable) characteristic.
With hibenatory creatures, ( bats, ground squirrels and other rodents, mouse lemurs, Hedgehogs, etc.) decreases in external temperature (over a period of days) cause their internal temperature to decrease, and metabolisms to slow down. Bears for example, feel this coming on, and over-eat, such that they have adequate nutrition through the hibenatory period.
I'm sure it can be chemically induced...not a coma, but chemically to cause your body to slow down due to temperature decreases. But we are far to reliant on our ultra-fast, ultra-complex brain impulse engine. I would imagine that long term, this would have negative impact on brain/body ability.
Hope this helps.
