4.7L engine used in Grand Cherokees was not a Mercedes engine, its a PowerTech engine (remember PowerTech also did I6 4.0L). Merecedes engine was the 3.0L diesel engine in Grands (different story). Here is a bit of write up on 4.7L engines:

As for a Hemi, Wranglers don't have Hemi engiines from the factory. You can buy a 5.7L Hemi Grand Cherokee from factory though. See this link for Jeep Australia:

I think there was (or is) a 6.1L Hemi as well, but that might now be superceded.
So yes you can buy a Hemi powered "Jeep" from the factory, but no you cannot buy a Hemi powered "Wrangler" fromt he factory.
Hope this helps.
