You can do both, but freezing isn't a good idea. Ice crystals will puncture the cell walls of the shallots and they'll be mush when thawed. Drying will work just as it does for onions and garlic. It is possible to dice and flash freeze shallots or any vegetable and avoid severe damage to them. (Tiny ice crystals form and damage to the cell walls is limited.) But most folks don't have the equipment to do this. We usually don't freeze onions or the like. They are available pretty much year 'round in most markets. Additionally, it is possible to substitute just about any onion for shallots in most recipes, and no one will know the difference (if you pick the right onion and use it judiciously).
no, because when you thaw them they are all slimy and soggy
Yes you can, but they are only suitable for cooking. Wash, dry thoroughly and free flow/snap freeze on trays lined with baking paper, then bag up in freezer bags, add to soups, stews etc.
