It only comes as a striker fired pistol - the design cannot accommodate a SA-type action (and the existing action isn't DA, to that end, as the striker fired mechanic is much different from a hammer fired mechanism).
Yes, the Glock 18 is fully automatic.
Glock describes their action design as "safe-action," and it has characteristics of both single- and double-action designs. Like a single-action, chambering a round sets the striker (firing pin) mechanism, but like a double-action that striker is pulled back farther by pulling the trigger. The idea behind the design was to have a shorter and lighter trigger pull than a DA gun, but not to have a fully cocked striker ready to fall like a SA gun, without requiring a manual safety like SA guns.
'Glock' usually refers to a 9mm pistol manufactured by Austrian arms company, Glock.
