Are you asking if it's possible or if it's legal? Those are two very different questions.

executable files do not usually contain the source code. You can decompile it or disassemble it into sort of human readable code (if you can read assembly language), but its going to be overwhelming for a while (years?) as compilers write weird assembly for efficiency reasons. Debug code often has the source code hidden in it.

opensource of course has the source code.

legality of modifying programs varies. Some programs welcome it and even have hooks so you can write plug-ins or mods. Some don't want you to touch it at all. Some let you hack but not resell your changes.

is the source code provided with the program? because you wrote "open".
