Probably not as the IRS destroys most tax returns after seven years.

See this IRS website for free federal transcripts - http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Get-Transcript

For a fee of $50 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

not from the IRS. only current and prior six years.  if you prepared them yourself you are out of luck unless you kept some form of copy.  if you used a preparer, they may have copies.
