No they can't. They are known to carry diseases in their own bodies but studies show they have never caused or transferred a human disease (or death). Worst that will happen is extremely itchy swollen red bumps that can remain slightly itchy after the bite subsides. I would worry more about Mosquitos

i dont think so given if your talking about dust mites because there to small for the human eye to see. they only eat dead skin so they help.

No, bed bugs only eat the dead skin that comes from your body onto the mattress and pillowcases. If you have bedbugs there might be a special chemical that you could use that would expel any bedbugs from your bed. Even washing your sheets and pillowcases constantly it wouldn't get rid of the bedbugs.

Bedbugs are not dust mites. They are a rather nasty small parastic bug that will not kill you but may drive you to despair. Bedbugs bite and cause the person bitten to itch. In some cases, the scratching causes a secondary infection that could endanger the person's life.

Some people do have alergic reactions to the bites.

They are nasty little creatures and need to be exterminated as quickly as possible.

What is the meaning of the idiom 'don't let the bedbugs bite'?

Because bedbugs hurt when they bite! You say "don't let the bedbugs bite" as part of a nightly ritual - the entire phrase is "Good night, sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite." This phrase comes from the time when matresses rested on rope supports on the bed, and you slept better if the ropes were tight instead of sagging. Bedbugs are bugs that crawl around the house after dark looking for blood - they get into the bed and bite whoever is asleep, leaving painful and very itchy sores.
