"margin notes"
Pages of course will make foot notes and end notes. Is there a way to format a document so that notes can be aligned in the margin?

If you only need occasional margin notes, create a text box and drag it to the margin.
If you need margin notes on every page, you could format the document into multiple columns, making the margins in essence, narrow columns. Obviously, not the most elegant solution, because you'd have to force text into the middle (wide) column, and it wouldn't reformat easily when editing.
Be sure to test with your printer to ensure that the full note will print. Most of my printers force a 0.2" to 0.3" non-printing area on letter-size paper.
