Possibly. If the contract was signed with no intention of performing the work, or if he/she does not order the materials as agreed, it could be criminal fraud or larceny. However, this sort of thing is normally handled through civil lawsuits. Most often, the "victim" would simply prefer to get their money paid back than to see the contractor go to jail and then be unable to repay them.
It can depend on who the check was made out to. If it was made out to you, you haven't committed a crime, but the doctor is still out his money and will come after you for it. If the check was made out to the doctor and YOU cashed it and kept the money you have committed FORGERY and FRAUD.

Ownership of the tools is cloudy. Go to small claims court if you have paid them money and ask for repayment in terms of the tools. Be sure to call the contractor beforehand and see what is happening in his world. Communication can clear up a lot of assumptions.
Do you mean can you pay money INSTEAD of go to jail? If so, the answer depends on the crime and where you committed it. Sometimes the penalty is a FINE (money) OR a certain amount of time spent in jail.
Kevin committed the crime in "Alibis Inc." because he was desperate for money and thought it was a quick way to solve his financial problems. He was influenced by the promises of the company and saw it as his only option at the time.
