Can the sun orbit the earth?

No. When one body is much more massive than the other, the lighter body (earth) orbits the heavier body (sun). Greater mass wins. The sun's mass is about 2 x 1030 kg. The earth's mass is about 6 x 1024 kg. Therefore the sun is about 300,000 times as massive as earth. Technically, it's most correct to say that both the Sun and the Earth orbit their common center of mass, but because the Sun is so much more massive than the Earth, the common center of mass is a point that's still within the Sun.
