No. Vampires aren’t technically alive, so the HIV wouldn’t be able to hijack the cell reproduction process. Furthermore, I doubt that a vampire who swallowed AIDS-infected blood could even become a carrier. Their lower body temperature would make it exceedingly difficult for the virus to survive.

Oh c'mon.  They've got to have some type of metabolism and that metabolism obviously involves blood.  I'm calling bullshit on this one.

Vampiric cells don’t divide - this is why vampires don’t age (source: Anne Rice). If cells don’t divide, viruses can’t reproduce.

But the chief argument against AIDS-infected vampires is that HIV doesn’t survive room temperature for more than about six days (source on vampiric body temperature: Bram Stoker)
