Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the ATMEGA8A-PU?

Yes. The symbol is MCU_Microchip_ATmega:ATmega8A-P and the footprint Package_DIP:DIP-28_W7.62mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the ATMEGA8A-PU?

DIP-28-300mil, with 28 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the ATMEGA8A-PU datasheet?

Microchip Technology publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the ATMEGA8A-PU?

JLCPCB lists it as part C34931, with 51 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the ATMEGA8A-PU?

Parts like it in the library: the ATMEGA328P-PU by Microchip Technology, the PIC16F72-I/SP by Microchip Technology, the PIC16F883-I/SP by Microchip Technology and the PIC16F873A-I/SP by Microchip Technology. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
