What allowed Guantanamo to exist - in the legal sense - was that the people sent there were all taken into custody outside the United States for 'crimes' (in quotes as few, if any, of the people detained there have ever been charged or tried for anything) which were also committed outside the United States.
Sending anyone from the US to Guantanamo would be such a violation of the Constitution I don't think anyone would even try it. Every Judge in America would order that reversed.
