No you cannot decrypt the md5 passwords. It's possible to look up md5 hashes on various sites and see if it matches their database for a known word/password, but if it's a decent password it won't be listed (and beyond that you'd have to resort to much more extreme methods/tools). You can't get at the original password from within Drupal or PHP at all.
