Almost certainly not. Virtually no wild animal will make a good pet. While there are a few cases (VERY few) where humans have raised wild animals successfully, even those animals do not make "good pets" in the sense most people mean the term. Wild animals raised in captivity aren't pets, they're still wild animals who have been raised in a human environment. These poor unfortunates require very special care and handling, and often they end up living out their lives in zoos or special rehabilitation facilities. Wild animals are best left in the wild.

In reality, no. You must understand first the care of a panda. It's needs, such as food. A panda's diet consists mainly of 99% bamboo with a small variety of meat in rodents etc, small scampering animals that may cross it's path. A grown panda can spend as much time of 14 hours eating up to even 20 kilos of bamboo. A panda is a BEAR. It has claws and a temper, even the best of "domesticated wild animals can step out of line", such as the recent event of the 7-year old white tiger mauling Roy Horn of Siegfriend and Roy during a performance. This thing was tamed raised and trained by this guy, and still attacked. This was a professional, what wider range of dangers could occur with an amateur? "You can take the tiger out of the jungle but you can't take the jungle out of the tiger." So no, a panda even raised from a cub would not make a good pet.
