Keats uses a question mark for the rhetorical questions at the start of La Belle Dame sans Merci. And Ian McEwan uses one for 'Or shall we die'? in his oratorio.

So some poets do, certainly.

Yes, if the phrase is a question, the place a question mark. Every other line needs to have a comma at the end, though. I hope I helped!

When you write a poem, you use the appropriate punctuation. A poem can contain a question. In that case it has a question mark.
