.Net is not just a framework, you can’t use it from normal C++ like MFC or other C++ libraries. There is a special version of C++ called C++/CLI that can access both the .Net framework (and any .Net libraries) and also any normal C++ libraries. But C++/CLI is mostly for special purposes, like bridging between C++ library and C# application, it’s usually not a good idea to use it as a general-purpose language.
So, is using .Net and MFC together possible? If you use C++/CLI, I think it is. Is it a good idea? No.
