For a while I thought it couldn't, but it'd be real eazy to pull off. You just need to let some bogus prison escape go down via the CIA while Saddam and his cronies are being transported to the courtroom.
All the US really cares about in Iraq is maintaining deals for the US oil companies and the lucrative defense contracts. Saddam would surely do a covert deal on those in exchange for his freedom and restoration to power. He's learned his lesson now, and the real terrorizers which were his sons are gone, so he'd probably come back a bit milder than he was in terms of agression.
