Maybe, but it would be difficult unless extentuating circumstances exist. Custodial issues are mandated under state laws whereas Immigration issues are the jurisdiction of federal authorities. Although being in the US as an illegal immigrant it is not the best situation to be in such a matter, the judge determines whether joint custody, primary custody or sole custody is granted based on the best interest of the child.
