Usually, no. But the scorer may award an RBI if, in his or her judgment, the run would have scored even had the out been made. One example might be a routine, but deep, fly ball, where the runner would have scored even if the catch had been made. I think you might be asking this question the wrong way: If a run scores BECAUSE OF an error, then you don't get an RBI. However, it's entirely plausible to get an RBI on a play in which you reach on an error, as above, or an RBI groundout in which the runner would have scored from 3rd but the batter should have been retired.
The question of whether you get the RBI is not a matter of whether the BATTER reaches via error, but whether the guy who scores, SCORES because of the error.

In softball when a team is unable to make a safe hit during the game it called?
When a team is not able to get on base by way of a hit, the game is called a no-hitter. If a player in the field makes an error and the player is safe, it is still a no-hitter. If a not a single person gets on base from one team for the entire game, it means that the it was a perfect game for the other player.

Can a Pitcher still have a perfect game if someone on his team gives up an error but the pitcher himself does not allow anyone on base?
No. The definition of a perfect game is that no one reaches base in any way for the entire game, even if that runner is thrown out on the same play. If the second baseman makes an error and allows someone to reach first base, even if the runner tries for second base and gets thrown out, the perfect game is over. It becomes a no-hitter.

Why don't Total Runs and Total RBI match for a team?
Because there are situations when a run is scored and no one gets credit for an RBI. Some examples are: 1) Runner scores on a wild pitch, passed ball, or balk. 2) Runner scores on a double play. 3) Runner scores because of an defensive error.
