Yes. (ooh, a bad flashback, sorry, I'm better now....
)
In Voicemail, go to Voicemail, click the menu button (the button on the bottom left of the phone. Click settings. From there, you can turn on the voicemail notification and select which notification tone you wish to hear when you are notified of a voicemail.
In text messaging, it depends on which app you are using, the stock messaging ap or another 3rd party app from the market. But getting the notifications turned on is gonna work kinda the same (yeah, that was coherent, eh?).
Open whatever messaging app you are using, and on the main page, click that wonderful menu button at the bottom left of the phone. A settings menu for the messaging app will open and somewhere in that settings menu will be a place to turn on and off the notifications for that messaging app. Once you've turned on the notifications, you'll see a place somewhere in he settings that allows you to select which notification tone you wish to play when you get a message.
It might be worded a little differently among the various apps (I'm familiar with the stock app as well as Handcent, my personal favorite, and GO messaging, which is good, also), but you should be able to figure out what you need to do pretty easily once on the settings menu.
Hope this helps,
