Not really, because gerbils can climb chicken wire (I've seen one do it with my own eyes!) and when they climb it, it damages their paws or they could escape. A good choice for a gerbil cage is a large fish tank with wire mesh as a lid, since you can hang things like water bottles down from them.

Could I bring my Gerbil around with me like have him on my shoulder and bring him for a walk outside with a leech or bring him to the mall or would that just freak him out?

It depends on how calm your gerbil is outside of its home. If he is not calm outside of his home then you probaly shouldn't take him anywhere. Anyway, if he is calm then you should put him in your pocket. If you put him on your shoulder then he will freak out. There are no leshes for gerbils. If there were leashes for gerbils it WOULD KILL them. Gerbils how to get used to where they usually are.
