Google ADS-B and yes it can with the right equipment, ie: any of the ADS-B receivers and decoders.

I think it is air navigation or SSR and will be data or some sort.
There is a thread running in Air / Aviation about ADSB and I think that frequency gets a mention.
Have a look at

Now called Secondary Surveillance Radar

Google is your friend.

Yes its SSR. ADS-B is a subset of a mode called Mode S.
That particular frequency is used to locate aircraft running Mode A, Mode C and Mode S transponders.
