I currently have a few static IPs set in my router and I'm wondering if there is any way that i can access/ping/refer to them via a DNS request (i.e. instead of 192.168.0.8 use something like "RapberryPi") that way I don't have to always remember the IP address. I know that this can be done if i setup a server within the NAT but I will like to implemented at the router level. Do routers usually have a "host" file or something of that sort?

You can do this with your windows host file located here: %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts. This would have to be done on each machine you want to be able to access the alias from.
