It is usually possible, but in most cases, illegal.

The process is called "reverse engineering".

I suggest you stay away from decomiling any commercial applications, especially now that you have posted such a question in a public forum. If the company that publishes that software ever decides to go on a suing spree, guess who is guilty until proven innocent?!?
