No. From the user's perspective, the app they're using would abruptly 
disappear, to be replaced by your app. Awful user experience!

No. A custom view would have to be running in your app, which would require 
activating your app (see above).

With the new App Extension functionality in iOS 8 it's possible that in the 
future Apple could add a new type of extension that could run a view inside of 
a local notification. But I have no idea if they're thinking of doing that.
