Kind of. While you can write this stuff in T-SQL, this is exactly why
Microsoft added the capability to put code written in .Net in SQL Server.

SQL Server does not really care much about lines at all. If you put CR-LF at 
the end of the string, there's a CR-LF at the end of the string. If string 
only has LF, that's it. Or only CR. It all depends on where the data comes 
from. If you load a text file from Unix, there will be only LF. If you 
run examples from SSMS there will probably be CR-LF, since SSMS in a Windows
application.

I do not have the time to look at the code as such for now.
