Probably not, most applications store the passwords encrypted or as a hash value of the original password so you won't be able to retrieve it. Your best bet is to reset it.

No, you just go into the database table for that particular user and reset the password field (you can blank it out or even enter the hash of the new value). If it is some type of application software you should look at their help documentation as they will instruct you how to do so.
