No. You could have done a quick check of

No. But there is good news on this front: there's a converter available.

I haven't tried it yet, but see this thread:

Well, you'd have to ask Cycling to be sure, of their motives.

I will say that it's really easy to make a Max 5 patch that won't work 

in Max 4, pretty much no matter what you do. There are a few new 

objects, and a few old objects that have new features and arguments, 

and several new features in the editing world, all of which would be 

near impossible to move to a Max 4 world.
