Absolutely. A guitar amp is designed to amplify the guitar and related frequencies and as a consequence, sounds nice with guitar. Vocals through a guitar amp sounds bad most the time, as does guitar straight into PA speakers.

You can, but it may not sound so good. I recommend buying some very cheap but good quality speakers.

Yes, this can be done, but it won't sound as good as a PA system.

Why cant your electric guitar not play though the pa but acoustic electric you can?

A PA system is intended for a certain frequency range, same with a guitar amp and bass amp. Bass amps for example are made to handle a lower frequncey range so plugging a bass into a guitar amp can damage the speaker because the guitar amp cannot handle to lows of the bass. The same is for a PA system. To properly play through a PA system it is better to mic a guitar amp and then run the mic through the PA. The mic will limit the frequencies of the guitar allowing the PA to handle it better. Most live venues will do this so bringing a Marshall full stack isn't neccesary. Even a small 50watt amp would work fine in a live setting as long as it is miced.

Was looking to build some PA speaker boxes can you use guitar amp speakers insted?

I would not advise this, because the guitar speakers are designed to make a guitar sound good, and PA speakers are designed to make vocals sound good. PA speakers, electrically, are low impedence speakers, while guitar amp speakers, electrically, are high impedence speakers.

Depends on what sort of foot pedal it is. If it is an effects unit like Tonelab or a wah pedal, you connect the tonelabs output to the input on the guitar amp. If it is a channel switcher, they might not be cross-compatible.
