Yes.

Uploading documents
See here for accepted file types http://en.support.wordpress.com/accepted-filetypes/ The following processes are outlined particularly for users who wish to upload a document and add its download link to a blog post or page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/uploading-documents/

Embedding documents
If you want to embed the document itself into a post, then you will have to use a third party application like Scribd or Google Docs.

Thank you. Thank you. Whenever I tried to upload the pdf document it wouldn’t load. But it did work if I dragged the document instead of selecting the file.
