Hi,

Can we able to send visualforce PDF from salesforce using REST API ???

No you will not be able to properly render a VF PDF Page via a REST API. You can get the VF PDF to render in a trigger and you may be able to get it to render in the REST API, however the formatting and rendering will not be correct. Also access to images and other items will not be pulled into the PDF. You can see my trigger pdf example here: http://corycowgill.blogspot.com/2012/02/generating-pdf-in-apex-trigger.html which may help you to generate a PDF but as I said, the images and other artifacts won't render. So buyer beware. :)
