You would first have to decide what that would mean.Isn't a .class file sufficient?

Yes but what you you mean by serializing a method? Assuming you could send it, what could you do with it when you receive it?

you don't serialize classes. classes are already serialized in the form of class bytes. you serialize instances of classes. call me a nit-pick if you want, but it's an important difference, and also leads on to answer your question: no, methods in java are bound to a class, not an instance of a class

the fact that you asked the question leads me to believe you don't quite understand what serialization is, and what we use it for, though. what did you intend to do with a serialized method?
