It wouldn't be possible as the right conditions aren't found in Arctic regions - foremost of which is that the temperatures are far too cold.
There's an excellent answer here provided by an expert on the subject, tells you more about hurricanes - http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AsZOI0TiinFdHiPleQprRVHsy6IX?qid=20070424121807AAn4Na9&show=7#profile-info-BYLASXhVaa

If hurricanes are defined as tropical revolving storms then they cannot reach the Arctic. In a broader sense of the word using "hurricane" to mean storms with hurricane force winds as defined by Admiral Beaufort, you can get such storms in polar regions. Named hurricanes, no; hurricane force winds, yes.

No. The Arctic is too cold for hurricanes to make it there.

Hurricane needs hi/lo temperature fronts and/or pressure fronts to appear. Arctic area does not provide that.

No, the water is too cold, there's not enough energy to sustain a hurricane.

To be honest, no, its not possible... At this point in time... take global warming into consideration, give it a decade, maybe two, then ask this question again.
