Not likely. True possums live in Australia (and have been introduced to New Zealand) while skunks live in North America. A possum is not the same as an opossum.

Skunks find grubs and worms by digging. You might cover the grass with netting, but they'll probably just dig through it. I don't know of antiskunk spray, maybe you could leave the sprinklers on, or have a sensor turn the sprinkler on when a skunk breaks a beam of light.
Skunks are actually pretty non-confrontational. They spray when they feel threatened. When you encounter one, walk away slowly and quietly.

Also the even better way to chase skunks away is to shake a set of keys at them, the more keys the better
Yes that's why when you have a skunk living near you , you should get it away as soon as possible :)
There are a few different thing you can do to keep skunks away such as using bright lights, remove garbage and keep area clear of berries or nuts from plants. Worse case, you can purchase repellant at any home improvement store.
Lions do not live in any of the places where skunks live. If they did, though, they still wouldn't eat skunks. Lions don't typically eat small prey, and if they did attack a skunk, the skunk's spray it would release in self defense would ward off the lion.
Raccoons just have a fur but don't have wings even babies that The Critter Guy take away inside my house not born with a wings. Chicken does.
Placing moth balls around your garden is a good way to keep skunks away. The smell from the moth balls will repel them and keep away from your garden. Make sure if you have children, that you keep them away from the moth balls, as ingesting them can be harmful.
