No, not a meteor shower. The dinosaurs became extinct after a meteor struck the earth which blocked out the sun and killed much of the vegetataion that the dinosaurs used for food.
Yes. Meteor showers are annual and planet-wide, and not limited to a particular continent or locality.
Many times
Probably not; you'll see more and brighter meteors in a meteor shower between about 2 AM and dawn. The Earth is going around the Sun at about 67,000 miles per hour. The "front" of the Earth is the line of dawn, and the line of sunset is the "back" of the Earth. Look at the bug splats on a car's windshield, and compare those to the bug splats on the BACK window. Lots more on the front, right? The meteors that you see in the evening are the few that were going fast enough to catch up to the Earth from behind. You'll see lots more looking forward, in the pre-dawn sky.
Yes Halley's comet struck Arizona over 63 million years ago and is believed to have caused the extinction of dinosaurs.
No they did not

No reason why they could not- they are unrelated events.
Many times
Probably about 4.6 billion years ago.
Did the Gloucester Meteor and the ME262 ever meet in combat

That could happen. I'm unaware that it ever has happened, but it's certainly possible.
That meteor is thought to have ended the reign of the dinosaurs and this created an opportunity for mammals to flourish.

Yes; Meteor Crater (just east of Flagstaff, Arizona) is a fine example thereof.The Chicxulub crater at the Yucatan Peninsula is one of the largest confirmed impact structures on Earth. The impact event has been implicated in the extinction of the dinosaurs.See the Wikipedia link(s) listed below:
