Of course! Horizontal or diagonal installations will work. Just be aware that depending on where the studs are on center, some warping may occur. Depends on environment, quality and thickness of the product, too. I lined the inside of my exterior laundry room with diagonal 1x6 cedar tongue and groove (after insulating w/fiberglass batts). After a couple of years, some small shrinkage and warping, but nothing significant.
Looks awesome!
If the face of your tongue and groove is smooth then you don't need drywall. I have one whole room covered in T&G cedar and it looks great.
1 1/2 or 2 inch galvanised.
A finish nail is usually used, common for interior, stainless steel for exterior.

To put the planks up horizontally, I would find all of the wall studs and mark them ( maybe with a chalk line). Then, using a 2 1/2" finish nailer, nail the cedar over the sheet rock directly into the studs. I think this would allow for better expansion and contraction. Glue may fail over the years due to fluctuating humidity levels, plus glue would be very time consuming. If you're applying the planks vertically, I would use 1/2" matarial running horizontally nailed to each stud for the length of the wall. Put up at least three courses (top, middle and bottom), then nail the vertical cedar planks to the 1/2" material.

Car siding, is a tongue in groove board, some times cedar, some times pine, with some decorative "v" cuts that adds some definition to the siding. I have seen it in either 6" or 8" widths, and lengths of 12 feet. The siding can be installed both vertical or horizontal. If horizontal, the tongue is usually on the top to avoid water retention & rot. This siding can be used both for interior "wood" rooms, and also for exterior siding. Staining or painting is also necessary.
