No, carbon is not malleable. It is considered a nonmetal and one characteristic of nonmetals is brittleness, quite the opposite of malleability.

Is astatine malluable?

Astatine is a highly radioactive element and is classified as a metalloid, which suggests it may have some metallic properties. However, due to its extreme rarity and short half-life, there is limited experimental data on its physical properties, including malleability. It is not well characterized, but it is generally believed that astatine would not be malleable like other metals due to its instability and the nature of its atomic structure.
