Usually not. If you work for the company, sometimes you are given options, or the opportunity to buy stock in the company. These opportunities are often restricted to senior level employees.

Yes, but you would have to track down an owner and buy it directly from them. Often one person owns the entire company, or sometimes it's owned by a partnership or a small group.

Yes, if you work for that company.
