No... MIR's orbit decayed to the point that the Russians decided to bring it in for a controlled re-entry, it caught fire, broke apart and crashed into the Pacific ocean in March of 2001..

Mir space station... The station existed until March 23, 2001, at which point it was deliberately de-orbited, and broke apart during atmospheric re-entry.

No. It splashed in pieces and is now in stationary orbit at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. RIP MIR
