I installed the last version of visual studio to target windows phone 8.1 OS. After the installation I figured out that the 8.1 OS was not yet released and I couldn't deploy my application on my device. Can I target the windows phone 8.0 version when building the application?

You may think (if it's your phone) about installing Developer Preview to test your WP8.1 App. – Romasz

Yes you can. Go to your project properties and there on your application tab, you can select the target OS.

But Once you have targeted 8.1 you can't deploy on a 8.0 device or emulator.
