    Well look at the Sun (NOT LITERALLY) it's has enough gravitational pull to keep all 8 of the planets in our solar system in orbit so yes if the Earth could exert enough gravitational pull it could theoretically pull Mars into it's orbit but to do so it would need mass much like the Sun, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus or Neptune.

    Provided earth gravitational pull is not bigger but also stronger but by that time i am sure all will die unless this happens over time of decades where all living being somehow evolve to adapt with the earth new gravity.
