There is one way.

If they ever email you something using Yahoo email even the web version, the source IP address is in the header section of the email. So if you can convince this Yahoo user to send you an email, you can get their IP address.

Find the line in the message header that says this:
Received: from [99.99.99.99] by web63001.mail.re1.yahoo.com via HTTP

The 99.99.99.99 is their source IP address.

you can't. if you don't want everyone to hate you leave their ip number alone. you wouldn't like it if i tried to get yours.
