Answer 1

Valid up to C# 6:

No, this is not possible. There's no such language feature in C#.

string secondValue = tupleWithTwoValues.Item2;

is ugly, then you should reconsider using tuples at the first place.

UPDATE: As of C# 7, tuple deconstruction is now possible. See the documentation for more information.
