No, your body would probably stop functioning and you would die before they got the knew brain in.
Or...
If it is, it may take a tremendous tole on your nerveous system, and all other ones connected to there. Because the brain in an organ and its foriegn, the immune cells will know its foriegn (through some biological function) and attempt to destroy it. You would also be risking many other bodily functions doing the transplant.

Brain transplant is impossible because you are technically and literally dead when brain function ceases, therefore a brain transplant would have to take place you were dead and it would serve no useful purpose.

If that were possible anyone that had Alzheimer's or Brain tumors would have had it done. I wish it were possible. You would find it a little hard to find donors.

I doubt it due to the nature of things involved but I've met a lot of people who seem to have had a Charisma Bypass.

Removal seems possible as is evidenced by Pres. Bush.
