Yes, it can be done if you can provide the right conditions. After about a year, if you put an apple next to it and plastic bag over it, the ethylene gas will cause it to fruit.

Thanks. :)

In a hothouse in the UK, yes you can - outdoors, no, not if you want fruit. Here's a link to a story about the only fruiting pineapple (grown from a cut off top) apparently raised outdoors in England(bet they brought it in for winter though) but apparently, Kew gives tips on how to grow pineapple (not that I could find it online) but probably in a hothouse anyway

You can buy pineapple plants, or grow one yourself from a cut off top from a shop bought one, but they're usually just ornamental, with just a slight chance that, as a house or conservatory or greenhouse plant, given the right conditions and a bit of luck, you might get a pineapple fruit...

Lots of stately homes used to have pineapple houses using a hotbed in frames. If you google pineapple growing in England you can find out more about it. No chance overwintering outdoors.

PS No serious genuine question is stupid.
