3D organ printing appears to be advancing rapidly and zero-g is thought to make things significantly easier but no, I don't think we're there yet. I was just responding to the previous comment, which claimed it would only be economic in mass production due to launch costs. I think that's incorrect due to the massive expenses incurred by dialysis patients. The cost of a kidney can be quite high and still save money compared to dialysis.
I used the cost of dialysis but it's not even just the dialysis itself, it's also dealing with the complications that come with it.
