Hydrogen bonding usually occurs between molecules that have a hydrogen atom bonded to either Fluorine, Oxygen or Nitrogen. So technically CH4 cannot hydrogen bond (certainly not between it's own molecules).
However a recent A-Level exam paper had a multiple choice question which said that CH4 molecules CAN hydrogen bond with itself.

Can CH4 for hydrogen bond?
No, in CH3F all the hydrogen atoms are bonded to carbon, which is not very electronegative. In order to form hydrogen bonds a molecule must have hydrogen bonded directly to ahifhly electronegative element such as nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine.
What is the predominant intermolecular force of methane ammonia nitrogen triflouride?
Correct answers from Mastering Chemistry: NH3 - hydrogen bonding CH4 - Dispersion forces NF3 - dipole-dipole
What is the chemical formula for methane molecule?
Molecular formula: CH4 Structural formula: . H H C H . H CH4 (1 carbon and 4 hydrogen) it is NOT ch4 it is CH4; 4 being a subscript indicating 4 hydrogen atoms bonded into a single carbon atom
Is hydrogen bonding is a type of bonding or not?
Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular force of attractionAdded:This is between molecules.It is not as strong as chemical bonding within molecules (intramolecular) though.
Hydrogen bonding occurs in molecules where hydrogen is bonded to what elements fluorine carbon oxygen nitrogen hydrogen boron?
the hydrogen bonding is possible in oxygen, nitrogen,and fluorine
What are the intermolecular forces of CH3NH2?
I assume you mean CH3NH2, methylamine. This has hydrogen bonding between molecules.
Why is h20 a liquid at room temp and ch4 is a gas?
everything depends on the Hydrogen bonding which creates long chains of molecules in water, but this is not possible in Methane.
What elements are bonding to hydrogen in hydrogen bonding?
flourine oxygen and nitrogen forms hydrogen bonding with hydrogen
Does CH4 exhibit London bonding?
CH4 is not a polar compound.So it does exihibits london forces

Does CF3H have hydrogen bonding?
nope, there's no hydrogen bonding because the hydrogen is not bonding whit any fluorine, just with the carbon
The intramolecular hydrogen bonding can be determined by?
