No.

If the motor runs backwards, swap any two phases to reverse the rotation, like this:

Old wiring:

phase A - brown wire - motor lead T1

phase B - yellow wire - motor lead T2

phase C - orange wire - motor lead T3

New wiring:

phase A - brown wire - motor lead T2

phase B - yellow wire - motor lead T1

phase C - orange wire - motor lead T3

No! The motor will not stop and reverse on it's own. But if your question is "can you reverse a single phase motor, the answer is usually, if the right number of wires are brought out from the winding.

Huh?

If you put 3 phases to a motor wound for single phase your going to make it smoke.

What will cause electric motor to shock you when you touch it?

The motor winding has gone to ground internally. The ability of the motor to shock you is caused by the ground wire missing or not connected. It is this ground wire that trips the breaker in short circuit conditions and disconnects the motor from the distribution system.


What is the reason for using 250 percent multipler for sizing motor circuit breakers in NEC?

When a motor starts the circuit breaker sees an almost dead short. Until the motor starts generating a back EMF , which opposes the current flow when rotation starts, the current is high. If the breaker is sized to the motors full load amperage, each time the motor is started, the breaker will trip.
