Can I supply power to a DS18B20 temperature sensor from one of the Arduino 's pins? So that with code I 'll be able to switch it on only during measurement (to lower power consumption). (I have connected the sensor 's VCC to pin 5 of Arduino)

DS18B20, can I supply power to it from an Arduino 's pin?

Nope. When 1-wire transaction is complete device automatically goes to sleep state till next transaction.
