Depends on how you define theme. Like Swing, Pivot supports pluggable L&F, but 
at the moment there is only one, called Terra. Terra supports configurable 
color schemes, allowing you to specify a custom font and color palette for your 
application.

> 2). Can we customize window task bar?

Do you mean the Windows task bar? If so, Pivot doesn't provide any direct 
support for that, but since Pivot applications are just Java apps, you can use 
the system tray functionality built into the JDK.

> window?

Not sure what you mean by this.

> 4). How can we create modal dialog/window?

You can create a modal dialog as follows:

Dialog dialog = new Dialog(true);

or:

dialog.setModal(true);

User input events to the owner window will be blocked until the dialog is 
closed.

Sheets are always modal.

> Please share supported styles for all components in Apache Pivot.

Styles are just the Java bean properties of the currently installed skin. You 
just need to look at the Javadoc for the skin to see what styles it supports.
