You can import dates in formats that are supported by CiviCRM. For any other formats you will have to modify code.

The built-in birth date field is a full date-format field so if you stored data in that field it will be in a full date format. (you can only get around this by storing it in a different field.)

You can, however, intervene in how it is displayed - ie. edit tpl files so that if your date show 13 Jan 1900 it would only show 13 Jan.
