Highly unlikely: Although nothing is impossible, this comes close. If a patient with HIV disease had an open bleeding wound and touched a cut on your face that was also fresh and open then there might be a possibility. This does not seem to have ever occurred, but there is always a potential. Hiv is transmitted sexually or by blood transfer by transfusion, needle sharing or organ transplant.
