Search engines generally don't do that as they store index vectors based on tokenized words (e.g., Google won't find salesforce.com as a match for sales either). Lucene does allow you to construct queries to do this kind of searching. See http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/queryparsersyntax.html or the underlying classes (e.g., PrefixQuery, WildcardQuery).
