No. However, he was conceived through rape. His mother somehow got locked into a mental institution for the criminally insane. She was raped repeatedly all night long by these monsters, and nine months later she gave birth to Freddy. I know, I know, it's a very silly, very contrived backstory. It's like something a 12 year-old would come up with. But...that's the official story.
Originally he was supposed to be a child molester, but they decided to change that aspect of the character because, at the time the movie was made, there was an extremely high-profile child molestation case going on, and the filmmakers did not want to be accused of basing the Freddy character on that particular criminal.
In A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), as well as all the sequels of it, Freddy is a child murderer, NOT a rapist or child molester.

In the new remake, however, Freddy IS a pedophile. The makers of the 2010 A Nightmare on Elm Street decided to resurrect this idea, against Wes Craven's wishes (Wes Craven wrote and directed the original film).

Freddy does not have a girlfriend. He was once married and fathered a daughter with his wife but he could not lead a normal life. Freddy went back to murdering and killed 20 children before his wife found out. When she did his daughter saw and reported him to the authorities. After going to trial and being released on a technicality the town people formed a mob and burned him alive in his own house.
Freddy Krueger once had a wife, and has a daughter. Signs would point to no.
No, he is completely fictional. See the related link for details (in the Development section) regarding how Wes Craven came up with the idea for the character.
It changes by film. Sometimes he is just a child murderer and other times he is a child molestor. So it depends but he is not good no matter how you look at it.
