It all depends on whether or not said A.I were sufficiently advanced. At the time being, I don't think we could even figure out exactly how advanced that would be, let alone build said machine. That being said "mostly\completely indistinguishable from a normal human" would be a decent, if rather vague, qualifier to that end.

The off switch on Chii was between her legs, so... that didn't work out so well. As to the OP, I don't see why not; assuming the A.I could achieve what we understand to be sentience, otherwise... well, it'd just be a sex doll, wouldn't it?

People fall in love with dogs, and indeed cars. Our ability to anthromorphalise is remarkable. So I see no reason why a person could not love a robot.
As to the robot loving a person, well there's the real rub. Can we adequately define love in order to program it?
