No you cannot. Chimchar is from the Sinnoh region. In White, you can only capture Pokemon that live in the Uvoua region.

You get a Chimchar if you want it as your 1st Pokemon
You must breed a Monferno or Infernape with a Pokemon to get the chimchar egg.
You can get a Chimchar if you trade it from games Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.
Chimchar is better , cause , if you evolve it into Infernape , its one of the fastest Pokemon So , id say , Chimchar is one of the best fire Pokemon . *Hope it helped , Kruh .
I'm not sure if it depends on the game or not, but I think you can only get Chimchar as your main-character Pokemon
