no; current technology rockets travel at about 100,000 mph so it would take almost 7000 years to go one light year. The US launched a rocket (PIONEER) about 30 years ago and it has left the solar system and is expected to reach another star about 40,000 years from now.

Why was a light year as the distance light travels in one year defined?

The light-year is the distance travelled by light in one year. Since the speed of light seems to be the speed limit in the Universe, it gives you an idea how long light takes, to travel from one place to another. If somebody says that Toliman is at a distance of 4.3 light-years, it means that light will take 4.3 years to travel from here to there, or from there to here. It also means that it isn't possible to reach Toliman in less than 4.3 years, however fast you go.
