No.  vMotion across datacenter is NOT supported with latest version of vCenter ie. vCenter 5.5.

Even with linked mode vCenter its not possible :

When vCenter Server systems are connected in Linked Mode, you can perform the following actions:

Log in simultaneously to vCenter Server systems for which you have valid credentials.

Search the inventories of the vCenter Server systems in the group.

View the inventories of the vCenter Server systems in the group in a single inventory view.

You cannot migrate hosts or virtual machines between vCenter Server systems connected in Linked Mode.

Refer:vSphere 5.5 Documentation Center

However, As per VMworld 2014 announcement. we can expect vMotion across datacenter as well as vCenters in upcoming release of vCenter.
