There's no way a surgeon would perform any kind of replacement for her at her weight. Aside from the anesthesia issue which in itself is too big of a risk for someone that morbidly obese, any orthopedist would require significant weight loss before even considering her a candidate. It's the same situation as WLS. Basically, she's fucked unless she loses at least half her current weight.
There was a guy with a prosthetic leg on My 600 Pound Life. Something much less invasive than hip surgery, and he was exceeding the max weight that a fake leg could handle. It became a motivator for him to keep losing weight. If Amber lost a leg, beetus or not, she’d be lucky to get herself (and keep) a peg leg at that weight.
