Not with out changing the slide and barrel assembly, with out knowing what frame your dealing with even that may not do it. in the end you would be better off just buying a 40 cal, That you can change over to 357sig by just changing the barrel, However this would void Taurus's Forever warranty...

Not easily, the 40 S&W case is wider, so as well as changing the barrel and magazine you'd also have to change the slide. By that time you might as well have replaced the whole thing.
As an engineer anything with metalbashing involved is always 'possible', there was a guy converting Lugers to 45 ACP, all he did was cut the sides off two of them, slightly off-center, and join the bits together so that he had enough width for the 45 ACP cartridge. So it's always possible. But in this case you'd be much better off just buying the 40 S&W version instead.

It would cost as much or more than just buying what your wanting. One would have to replace Barrel and all related parts as well magazine and possibly bolt. 9mm uses same bullet as 38,38spcl,357 mag.but cases vary in size. Just trade or sell the gun you have and buy a 40 cal.SW in what ever brand suits your taste and need in a hand gun.

No. You can convert a .40 S&W to a .357 Sig and vice versa.

NO, you are thinking of 40 S and W and the 357 SIG.
Why would you ever buy a Taurus?
