Yes (even assuming you restrict yourself to a human's organic brain), but said proper care would be something beyond our current abilities.

Even when you are young, your brain's neurons are dying. They are also dividing. Cells divide to increase their number. Cells also die.

The first step would be removing the division limit obviously, but after that you need to maintain a state where the neurons are dying and dividing in a manner that maintains equilibrium in addition to being conducive to continued learning and activity, and of course while also avoiding problems from cropping up.
