No HIV/AIDS cannot be passed by hugging. It is passed by blood, sexual intercourse( vaginal, anal) it can be passed by oral if you have a open sore, or cut in your mouth.

Its passed by mother to child in utero, delivery, or breast milk. So hugging, holding hands, kissing ( unless you and the infected person have open sores) get sneezed on you're not going to get infected with HIV/AIDS.
