Well...I suppose they could, AC. Since our doctors can keep someone alive without a heart for the length of time they need to transplant a heart in the recipient, and their technology can keep someone alive long enough to completely rebuild half of their body, and they survive the process. Also, pacemakers are a thing in our world, which are artificial heart pumpers. They're sort of an electronic heart already.
