No. Bicycles travelling on a public roadway are subject to the same traffic laws as motor vehicles. Making a U-turn and driving into oncoming traffic would be unlawful for a motor vehicle and thus, also for a bicyclist.

Bicycles operating on the public roads and streets must follow the same traffic laws as motor vehicles. If your move would place you or the motor vehicle traffic in jeapordy, no, of course not.
Can you merge from middle turn lane?
Yes, it is legal in most states. Just move into the turn lane and make sure there is no oncoming traffic. Wait till there is an opening, and accelerate into traffic. This is not a big deal, if done correctly.

When you come to an left turn green arrow and it turns but the main light is green do you have to wait for the green light to come on again?
If you are referencing the "green arrow" to come on again, no, but you are suppose to "yield" to oncoming traffic, especially, more than likely, they have a green light to go. For example, if you are heading north in the north lane and a car is heading south on the south lane, but gets in the turning lane to make a left turn and there is no green arrow but their light is green, it is legal to turn, but you have to yield to oncoming traffic, make sure oncoming traffic is clear before you go out in the road. If not, it could cause a major accident.Added to clarify: If the green left arrow goes out and is replaced by a red left arrow or a red bullseye clearly meant to control the left turn lane, THEN you must wait until the next green arrow in order to make your turn.
Who is at fault if driver a waiting to make left hand turn does not yield to ongoing traffic and car b hits back end o f car who and was a busy street with no lights?
It depends on what you mean by 'ongoing'. If you are waiting to make a left, the traffic moving in the opposite direction is called the oncoming traffic. If you did not yield to the oncoming traffic, or did not wait for it to clear the intersection before you turned, then you are at fault for the accident. If you are waiting to make a left and a car moving the same direction as you are facing hits you, then the car that hit you is at fault IF you were stopped and/or signaling that you were turning left. When making a left turn from the left lane, cars on your side of the road are supposed to pass your car in the lane to the right of you; if you are making a left from the only lane, the cars behind you are supposed to stop and wait for you to make the turn.
