No- Polk did not fight in duels. He relied on the law and his speaking skills to deal with adversaries. Aaron Burr and Andrew Jackson both shot others in duels.

Yes you can. To challenge a student, the student has to be someone who hates you or tells you a bad thing. Aim at the student with L1, and shoot him/her with a spell (Expelliarmus, for instance). If the person runs away, he/she is too much a coward to duel. If he/she is not scared, you will automatically be in a duel with him/her.
