Unlikely.

Maybe you could use zero-point energy as an energy source. But that 
still doesn't give you the ability to artificially generate forces like 
that. (Not to mention overcome Newton's Third Law of Motion...)

Alternatively, maybe you could find a way to generate forces like that, 
but it's powered by batteries or something, and so you have no need for 
zero-point energy.

IOW, zero-point energy and the gravity gun don't actually have much 
relationship.
