Nope, you can't attack tapped creatures in Magic The Gathering. Attacks are directed at players, planeswalkers, or in some formats, other things, but never directly at creatures, tapped or otherwise. That said, tapped creatures can't block, so they're sitting ducks for your attacks on their controller!

Absolutely not. In MTG, creatures do not attack each other directly. You're attacking the opponent or their planeswalkers, not their creatures. Tapped status affects blocking, not attacking.

Quick answer: No. Tapped creatures are not available to be attacked. You're aiming at players and planeswalkers, not engaging in creature-to-creature combat.
