Maybe if someone smuggled one out of the wild....or you could move to Madagascar, too.

They're super tiny, though. Maybe an inch and a half long.

Conservation. In order to make sure that chameleons from Madagascar are not exploited for the pet trade only a certain amount of a few species are allowed to be exported. It appears that only 4 species of Brookesia will be exported in 2008, and not many individuals of each. Those species are B. stumpfii, B. theili, B. therezieni, and B. superciliaris.
