Most constellations are visible about 300 days per year. Only when the Sun is very close to that constellation is it entirely hidden. But since few of us get up before dawn to study the sky, we typically see only "evening" stars.
Some constellations, such as Cassiopeia and Ursa Major are "circumpolar"; they are close enough to the celestial pole that they are, depending on your latitude, always visible.
In order to provide a better answer, I would need to know your latitude.

Yes. Pole Star is located by Ursa Major. On a clear moonless sky during summer at 9.00 p.m. at the northern part of sky you can see Ursa Major. Imagine a straight line that passess through these stars and extend this line towards the northern side to a star that is not too bright. This is a Pole Star. This star does not move at all. Ursa Major moves east to west of this Pole Star.
