Not for humans!
However, some animals, like rabbits, have 2 types of feces, one of which is ingested a second time around to get all the nutrients out. Bottom-dwelling fish, like some species of catfish regularly consume feces of other fish as part of their normal diet. Or, while dogs will eat feces of other animals, it's not good for them (can spread disease) and they don't get any nutritional benefits either.
