No, Ex and Su only.

You gain all extraordinary and supernatural abilities (both attacks and qualities) of the assumed form, but you lose your own supernatural abilities.

Look at the description of the special attack in the creatures description below the stat block. It should tell you whether a specific attack is (Ex) - Extraordinary, (Su) - Supernatural, or (Sp) - Spell-like.

For example: look at the Inevitable: Kolyarut http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/inevitable.htm#kolyarut

You would get the special attacks (which happen to be identical to the spells of the same name at 13th level caster) Enervation (SU) Ray and Vampiric Touch (SU). You would not get the at spell like abilities available at will: discern lies, disguise self, hold person, invisibility, locate creature, suggestion.
