Not by themselves, because they are both too electropositive. Together with oxygen, however, they form calcium aluminate.

What would an aluminum atom tend to do in bonding with another atom to form an ionic compound?

When aluminum forms an ionic compound, it tends to take the form of a cation with a +3 charge. This would happen because it would donate three of its electrons to the anion(s) it forms the ionic compound with.

Is AlF4 aluminum tetrafluoride?

It would be, if it were covalent. However, due to the large difference in electronegativity, any compound of aluminum and fluorine would be ionic. This compound would then be called aluminum IV fluoride. Aluminum does not readily form a 4+ ion, but rather forms a 3+ ion, so the correct formula for aluminum fluoride is AlF3.
