Yes, it can JavaScript or what they call as Acrobat Javascript , but not all the PDF viewer can are designed to follow the Adobe Javascript API. There are few limitations defined in the API, it can make Ajax network calls but no it cannot run any other then the JavaScript as of now.

But you can disable it by

Select Edit>Preferences.
Select the JavaScript Category.
Uncheck the Enable Acrobat JavaScript' option.
