Vegas has had this capability back to least version 4 so Pro 8 can do it too.
Use either Pan/Crop or Track Motion to do the zooming in for you.
Be advised that, if you're attempting to zoom in on an SD signal (720 x 480), the quality will start to fall apart fairly quickly.

If you're putting an HDV clip onto an SD timeline, then yes, you can definitely zoom in on the image.
How much of a zoom in depends on how good the focus was on the original footage.

Yes, you can zoom in that much and do a lot with that. It can correct a multitude of sins -- improve a shot, make one clip a two camera shoot, add "motion" to the camera.
