No, but you can download visual studio express which is free. That will allow you to create .Net 4.0 applications.

This has been asked before, see:

Can I (and how do I) target .net 4 with vs 2008?

So it appears you cannot. .NET 4 definitely had a beta, and I was thinking that was available for VS2008, but I guess I was mistaken and it was only available with the VS2010 beta.

.NET Framework 4 is quite different from previous versions, and VS2008 doesn't support this. At least for now you have to use VS2010 to target .NET Framework 4.

No. You need VS 2010.
