Can a girl in a coma get pregnant?

Generally yes. A coma is just a condition affecting the brain, so unless something affects her "down there", of course she can get pregnant.

Their autonomic functions are not inhibited once they have been placed on life support, so generally speaking they would still be capable of pregnancy.

If their coma is affecting their neurological function in the lower part of their spinal cord..chances are they will not poop without some help or digital stimulation.
