No. The particle is moving, remember, and it's location is only a statistical probability. If you perform an experiment to measure its exact location over a narrow interval of time, you lose all possibility of determining its instantaneous momentum. If you perform an experiment to determine its momentum, all information about its location is lost. It isn't simply a matter of inadequate measuring tools. It is mathematically impossible to acquire both pieces of information on the same particle within the same interval of time.
