It used to be in some places. But it's not allowed now. The 8th amendment forbids cruel and unusual punishment. So even if it was still on some New England law book - and I'd guess that somewhere it is - it can't be enforced.

Was Paul present at the stoning of James the Just?

There are suspicions that the stoning of Stephen in the mid 30s which is described in Acts is modelled on the stoning of James in 62 CE. Acts has Paul being present at the stoning of Stephen, raising the possibility that he was at the stoning of James. Most chronologies of Paul have him being released from imprisonment in Rome in 62 CE, making his presence at the stoning of James at least feasible.
