With the single exception of "rogue" comets (rare), yes, all comets are part of our solar system. Rogue comets come through space from "somewhere" and are attracted enough by the sun's gravity to swing around the sun as they pass on a hyperbolic orbit. The hyperbolic orbit is what gives them away as comets from outside our own solar system. Comet Arend-Roland in 1957 was such a comet. They pass once - and will never be seen again.

Technicly no. Comets usually come and leave the solar system, but stay in the galaxy.
