Sure. It's a fairly common approach. For the UI, Cocoa is highly productive.
For the back end, well, depends on your application. I use C++ for my ORM
layer, because that best fit my design.

No, and it wouldn't really make sense because Core Data is a
Cocoa/Objective-C framework. If you have your own data model based on C++,
then you would need your own code generator. If you're talking about
automating generation of classes to intermediate between the UI and you
existing C++ code, that's something you'd have to write...
