No :) After you put typo3 to your server, simply navigate to the root of 
the site and typo3 will run in install-1-2-3 mode and import everything 
for you (and even create admin/password user!).

There is no good news, usually this takes at least a month of work.

Ask your boss to order a typo3 book (see here: 
http://typo3.org/documentation/typo3-book/), it will really help you. 
While it is about typo3 3.8, it is still good for 4.x.
