No, You cannot castle to get out of check.

You are not allowed to castle when you are in check. In other words, the king may not be in check before or after castling.

Also, you cannot castle across a line of check. Meaning, if the spaces that the king is "jumping" over are in the line of fire from any opponent piece then you can't castle.
