No. Java was designed with programmer friendliness and ease of maintenance of code in mind. Pointers makes code pretty complicated and providing direct access to the memory can have devastating effects in the hand of a mailcious or an inexperienced programmer. Also, direct multiple inheritance is not supported by java. You can achieve partial multiple inheritance with the help of Interfaces.

Java does not support pointers as all variables are passed by reference and although extending classes is not permitted, you can implement as many interfaces as you'd like
