Yes
Yes, there is a 11" x 13" Pyrex dish.
No.
To protect Pyrex bowls from breaking always place hot bowls on a dry towel or potholder, never damp towels or metal trivets. Do not place Pyrex bowls directly on stove top burners or under broilers. Allow the oven to fully pre heat before placing dish in the oven. And finally, cover the bottom of the dish with liquid before cooking meat or vegetables.
Assuming you mean a "petrie" dish this is a small flat laboratory dish made of thin clear pyrex glass about 10 cm diameter and 1 cm high with a tight fitting glass cover. It is used for growing cultures in a laboratory.
The simple rule of thumb is - if it can be used in a CONVENTIONAL oven it can be used in a Halogen Oven. My understanding though, is, if a Pyrex dish was to be used with a lid it might not cook the food properly. A Pyrex dish without a lid would cook the top of the food fine but leave the bottom soggy.
Yes it can. I usually let it sit on the counter for about 10 - 15 minutes just in case there is a flaw in the pyrex dish.
yes, all pyrex dishes are tempered glass and can go in the oven
If the roaster fits in the fridge, and the fridge is cool, then yes you can leave it in overnight. I would be sure to have a cover on it just to prevent it from drying out.

When using a glass/Pyrex dish the temperature of the oven is 25 degrees lower.
I use pyrex on my gas grill. I don't like to use aluminum. I put room tempature water or oil in the dish add seasoned meat. No cover. Meat comes out unbelieveably moist. The key is never to add anything cold to the dish when it is hot if you do it will burst
