The US never had any intention of occupying North Vietnam, nor did they ever attemp to do so. The US did not accomplish what they desired to accomplish which was the stablization of an independant South Vietnam, so no they did not win. They also did not lose the war as they withdrew from the war in 1973 and turned the war over to the South Vietnamese military and the South Vietnamese military was defeated two years later in 1975.
