Only if your implementation provides you access to the standard library
source code.

Not in the general case.

The standard functions in C need not be written in C -- and some
of them *cannot* be written in C on many systems.

There are some "decompilers" which attempt to turn selected compiled
code into C source code... but it isn't uncommon for them to
have difficulty, and the generated C code won't necessarily look very
much like the "actual source-code".
