Can the human body hypothetically be magnetized/magnetically aligned?

I was thinking about how an MRI uses a strong magnetic field to align the spins of hydrogen atoms in the body. What I was wondering about was if the human body experienced a magnetic field much stronger than that from an MRI, is it possible or plausible that a greater portion of the hydrogen atoms in the body could become aligned or that they could stay aligned for a longer period of time? So that someone could become magnetized (or spin polarized) enough to attract magnets or for a significant amount of time, like a few minutes.
