It depends what it was written in. If it was written in a managed language like C#, then yes. If it was written in an unmanaged language like C++, then yes, but the resulting code will be practically unreadable.

What about if it was written in matlab?
There is the possibility, as MatLab is strictly managed. However, I don't know if the demand has been there for anyone to bother reverse-engineering it. Even if they have, you have to hope the developer did not obfuscate the code before compiling.
Decompiling compiled binaries never produces clean code, by the way - you'll find that it is essentially unworkable if you don't have a lot of time and/or are not a seasoned programmer. All the comments are stripped out, code from other libraries is imported and lined, in some compilers function/variable names are changed and consolidated, and code inside functions are inlined - making a big 'orrible mess!
