Probably. There are lots of kits on Ebay for repairing different bits of iPhones, the WiFi may well be a removable module. The only problem I have heard about or experienced was that one of the iOS updates didn't have a good enough routine for copying over your WiFi or Email settings, so it seemed like it was all broken after the update. But if you deleted and re-created all your accounts it fixed everything. If you've been through a complete restore though and it is still not working then it probably is hardware.
