I think we are getting a bit ahead of ourselves here. In order to answer that question we must first have either an accepted or objective standard as to what this word "life" means.

What I meant was "is there anything at the quantum level we would consider alive, and if so, why?" Starting at the most basic level we can discern, is there something that is considered alive? If not, then we move up a level until we arrive at a level where something exists we consider alive. By considering the difference between that level and the one prior we may get an idea of what constitutes life.
It was just a suggestion of how to help along the defining process.
