This question is very broad as there were not only different types of bombers (e.g. light, medium, and heavy, as well as dive bombers), but also bombers of different nations. Further, there is an additional consideration of the meaning of "capable of flying upside down": there are aerodynamic and structural-strength implications in the question, as well as the aerobatic considerations. Generally, there is no reason why a bomber could not fly upside down, presuming there was no load in an aircraft having a bomb bay. I'm not sure how bombs are hung in all bomb bays, and this would be a factor, as well as center-of-gravity issues. A more important consideration is WHY would one want to fly a bomber upside down? There would be no reason to undertake this flight position that I can think of.
