Depends where you live. US, no way. UK, call your carrier. Other places, call your carrier and ask.

If you're in the UK on O2 they will unlock a contract phone at any time for free (you still have to fulfil your contract). If you are on pay as you go it costs £15 and you lose your free Internet bonus that you get for a year when you first sign up.
 
"Factory Unlock" is a server-side setting. This is the tag your iphone has on apple servers. Therefore only apple can set it to "factory unlocked".
