Can I withdrawal from my ROTH 401k for a first time home purchase without penalty?

Since my 401k is a ROTH 401k can I withdrawal the $10,000 with no penalty for a first time home purchase?

No. Only funds withdrawn from an IRA can be exempt from the early withdrawal penalty, not from a 401(k) account.
