It is possible to mixed managed and unmanaged code. However, it is not recommended.

Take a look at the gcroot template.

class foo
{
public:
gcroot<String*> str;
foo() {}
};

Why would you want to do this ? The UI is usually all managed or native : all .NET framework controls have their equivalents in MFC so there's no need for you to have a .NET control in a dialog.

If you want to write managed code you should be using Windows Forms and not MFC.
