Yes.

Try it and see?

Indeed. But you can get it and set it up easily:
"apt-get install vlan"
"vi /etc/network/config" - then add something like:
auto eth0:1
iface eth0:1 inet static
address 10.0.0.3
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.0.1
vlan_raw_device eth0
Obviously the network and device settings will vary.

Hard to say, there is a rough overview above, but you don't say
what you've tried, or what you'd like to do. Honestly if you don't
offer evidence of putting in a minimal bit of evidence it is likely
your message(s) will just be deleted..
