I would go with a no for now unless you do REALLY WELL on your MCAT...

My answer it is too early to know because admission to medical school depends on your grades at university as your high school grades are irrelevant. With that said if you were to make a competing argument that high school grades are predictor of future success then my answer would be you need to ensure that your grades stabilize and you do not have wide swings in your semester GPA. Based on using your grades for predicting future success I would say you are in danger of not being accepted.

Med school comes after college, Mick. You have 6 more years of schooling before you'll be ready to study medicine.

The short answer is yes, it is possible. Just try to hone your study habits right now in high school, so you will be prepared for college. Your four years in college and MCAT scores will determine if you can achieve your medical school dream. Study hard now!
