I don't think you can "pop up a word document" from a web page. All you can do is serve the response for the document. What the browser does with that depends on how the browser is configured and what plug ins it has available. You do have a little control as the MIME type set for doc/docx on the server but this is fairly limited. When we need to pop up a formatted document we use the ReportViewer, this can export to Word but also renders a pixel perfect report on the page.

In short, no. But here's a link to the MSDN article for the report viewer, it will be a good start, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms251671.aspx. There are 100s of tutorials on ReportViewer and it's designer. Try googling the terms provided in the answers you get and you will learn much more than copying someone else snippet of code into your project.
