No. Programs cannot reprogram themselves in a useful way and are very very far from it.
Eh, I'd say continuous training models are pretty close to this. Adapting to changing conditions and new input is kinda what they're for.
Very far from reprogramming though. The general shape of the NN doesn't change, you won't get a NN made to process images to suddenly process code just by training it.
Then how does polymorphic/self-modifying code work?
It doesn't or do you have serious applications for self-modifying code?
Some use it for causing millions of dollars in damage.
