Hey,
Can we find Standard deviation of a distribution if we have the mean of the distribution?

Of course not. You'd need the distribution itself, or at least some samples from the distribution.

No, neither of those distributions. It is only possible for a few special 1-parameter distributions like the exponential and the Poisson. (Maybe only those two--I don't know of another.)
