Yes. Specifically, such phases can be seen on Mercury and Venus. Mars and other planets that are further out are "almost-full", due to the fact that they are further away from the Sun. You could also see phases on asteroids, if they are in an appropriate position, and you use telescopes that are powerful enough.

Is there going to be a new moon?
Visually, that is correct, most of the time. The new moon happens when the moon is directly between the earth and the sun. So without very special equipment, it cannot be seen. However, this is the time when eclipses of the sun happen, and during eclipses we 'see' the moon eclipse the sun. We don't see very much detail; we see the moon in the sense that we don't see what the moon is blocking.

What planets do not have lunar phases?
Planets do not have lunar phases because lunar phases are specific to our Moon. However, planets with moons of their own can have similar phenomena called satellite phases, where the appearance of the moon changes as it orbits the planet. Some example of these planets are Jupiter and Saturn, which have many moons.
Do moons on other planet give light as earths moon?
The planets closer to the sun than we are (Mercury and Venus) show all the same phases that the Moon does. The planets that are farther away don't show all the phases, they are either full or pretty close to full. The reason is that to get a "new" phase, the planet or moon must be between the Earth and the Sun. Mercury and Venus can come between the Earth and the Sun and be in the "new" phase, but the outer planets can't.
