Yes they can! In fact, shells are one of the easiest things to fossilize (the other is probably bone), and a majority of our knowledge on extinct, underwater invertebrates comes from their fossilized shells.

leg bone
teeth, because its bone. organs cannot usually be fossilized
fossil calcification is when the calcium in a bone intergests and causes the bone to rott away. the calcium in a bone desintergrates leaving only the fossil behind.
Assuming you meant a dinosaur fossil and an insect fossilized in amber, the difference is that the soft tissues of the insect remain whereas the dinosaur fossil shows only hard tissues such as bone and tooth. Additionally, the insect fossil is the actual insect, wheras the dinosaur fossil is a stone formation that was created by rock replacing the bones of the dinosaur.
Fossilized remains are commonly found throughout the world. If you suspect you have found the bone of an animal, you should probably notify your local college and see if an archaeologist could take a look at it. If the fossil is part of a larger skeleton, the site could be excavated further by professionals.
