Yes, you can have a foot brake AKA coaster brake on a BMX. But it's not that common, apart from on bikes most intended for kids doing casual riding.
For dedicated riding, people prefer hand-operated brakes, as they make it faster to get back on power after braking.

Does BMX make 24'' bikes with petel brakes?
BMX isn't a manufacturer, it's type of bicycle - just like sneaker is a type of shoe. BMX doesn't make any bicycles. Bicycle manufacturers make BMX bikes. And pedal brakes aren't that good on a performance bike, as you have to wait until your pedals are in the right position before you can brake. But it's possible that you can find a BMX-looking kids/juvenile bike with a pedal brake. Don't expect it to do particularly well if it gets ridden hard though.
