Yes, nitrogen can be liquified. It's a vey common process in fact. That is how it is transported. It is pressurized and stored in an insulated dewar. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen#Liquid_nitrogen By the way, any gas can be liquified if you reduce the temperature or increase the pressure sufficiently!

Yes; any gas can become a liquid, or even a solid, if it is subjected to a sufficiently low temperature, and a sufficiently high pressure. How much pressure and temperature depends on the specific gas, of course.

nitrogen's freezing/melting point is 63 degrees kelvin but to make it a solid it would have to be pressurized.
