There isn't a SpanWildcardQuery, per se, but there is a SpanRegexQuery:
<http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/trunk/contrib/regex/src/
java/org/apache/lucene/search/regex/>
It can be used to achieve the same sort of thing, only using standard
regex syntax like fast.* (instead of fast*)
But, stemming should be considered as well. It'd certainly be more
performant using a regular PhraseQuery with terms analyzed and
stemmed, matching terms analyzed the same way during indexing.

Is it possible to use wildcards with SpanNearQuery?
For example, if the user enters "fast car" with a slop of 1 things
like "fast cars" "faster cars" "fast brown cars" etc would be found?
You might be looking for stem-analysis? You can, for instance, take
a look at the snowball stemmers.
Wildcards would be if the user enters 'fast* car'.
But to answer your question, there is no SpanWildcardQuery as far
as I know. You could make one though. And I can imagine it would,
just as SpanFuzzyQuery, be really slow and virtually unusable in
the hand of the users.
