Normally, when you first start the car, you can hear the pump "wind up" for a second or two. This means that it's probably working, but is no guarantee.
But if you think your pump is failing/failed, I'd suggest picking up a Haynes or Chilton manual and having a look at the fuel system checks. That should pretty much determine if the pump is good or bad. If the pump is bad, you have a big job ahead of you. The pump is located inside the fuel tank. Replacing it means dropping the tank after you suck all the fuel out of it.

I need to know where the fuel pump is located and how to get to it on a 1996 Pontiac sunfire gt
You can check by looking up the pump on any of the big box parts store's websites. Compare the part numbers of the pumps for the two cars.
If the part number is the same and the configuration is the same then sure.
yes
The fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank. You'll have to drain the fuel and drop the tank to get at the pump.
Your best bet is to check prices on some of the big box parts store's websites.
