No , not unless there`s a mod for it somewhere.
Dead Thrall normally works on people only.

Not sure they would fight for you even if you could resurrect them since they are a passive creature like a Salmon or a Bee and won`t/can`t attack.
UESPWiki says the hawk and other passive creatures are more akin to scenery than like a true creature such as a Sabre Cat or a Mammoth

this might answer your question:-

  • Hawks are actually not NPC's. Rather, they are animated movable static objects that follow a movement path. While this may sound strange, the game treats them similarly to objects such as bones or movable rocks. When anything which can move such objects hits the Hawk, the static object representing the Hawk is removed and a ragdoll container looking just like the Hawk is dropped down in its place, which can be looted for a Hawk Beak and Feathers. This further explains why sometimes when a Hawk is killed, it does not drop exactly from the spot where it was killed.
  • An extremely useful way to kill a large number of Hawks all at once this way is by using Kyne's Peace or Harmony. Both these attacks will move the Hawk, (and thus 'kill' it), while not angering local Guards or other NPC's. A single Kyne's Peace shout can bring down a dozen or so Hawks at the East Empire Company Warehouse this way.
  • Hawks do not suffer random effects from the Wabbajack. Instead, they are instantly killed.
  • Hawks cannot be reanimated by Conjuration spells.
  • Hawks have a hit-box which is larger than the hawk itself. This means that when one narrowly misses a Hawk with the arrow on the screen, the game will still treat the event as if the Hawk has been hit. This makes the Hawk somewhat easier to hit.
  • Hawks are some of the few creatures in Skyrim that cannot be Soul Trapped. Dragons are another example.
