No, They need oxygen in the water to live, and space to swim around.
Platys can sometimes be kept in a bowl, if the bowl is big enough and in a warm enough area. Generally, though, fish bowls should be banned and not used.
no. fish can only mate with fish of the same species. Gouramis mate with gouramis and platys mate with platys.
yes and they can more than one at a time
swordtails
Mickey Mouse Platys don't lay eggs. They give birth to live fish.
No, fighting fish (Bettas) are only interested in fighting with other fighting fish.

Most livebearing fish such as mollies, platys, and guppys begin having fry (baby fish) once they hit 4 months of age.

Male Platys (and Swordtails) are notoriously bad tempered fish and often fight and bully one another. That is simply part of their nature.
To my knowledge, live bearers! Have fun! ;)
