Can a Claddaugh ring be used as a promise or commitment ring if a boyfriend and girlfriend wear one?
Claddaugh rings have always traditionally been used in the Irish culture as a friendship/commitment ring or as a wedding band. So, YES.
Can you wear a Claddagh ring facing inwards if you are not in a relationship but you are in love?
The claddaugh is turned inward on the right hand if you are no longer available or if ''someone has captured your heart.''.
What is the Irish claddagh?
The Claddagh's distinctive design features two hands clasping a heart, and usually surmounted by a crown. The elements of this symbol are often said to correspond to the qualities of love (the heart), friendship (the hands), and loyalty (the crown). The expression which was associated with these symbols in the giving of the ring was: "With my two hands I give you my heart, and crown it with my love." Yet, the expression, "Let love and friendship reign forever" can be found as another meaning for the symbols. The way that a Claddagh ring is worn on the hand is usually intended to convey the wearer's romantic availability, or lack thereof. The ring is worn on the right hand with the heart facing outward to show that the wearer is not romantically linked but is looking for love. When turned inwards, it is shown that the wearer is in a relationship, or their heart has been "captured". Noting that the heart is pointing down the hand and into the veins which lead to the wearer's heart. The ring worn on the left hand with the heart facing outward shows the wearer is engaged; turned inward indicates the wearer is married.

Have a heart shaped diamond ring what way should it be worn?
If it is part of a claddaugh - and it was given to you as an engagement ring/promise ring, the heart would be turned toward you reflecting that your heart is taken.
