Is it possible to view a source code of an executable file (.cpp) using IDE or any other means? Thanks for answering a beginner question.

Do you mean to decompile a binary to a source file?

I mean an executable file with the file extension .exe which is created using c++.
I don't know what you mean but I think its related on what I want to do. Can you tell me how to do it?

If you want to decompile you need to get a decompiler.
If it was compiled with debugging symbols you can almost get the exact source even with simple tools like objdump
