Is it night time in all parts of the world in the same time?

No. Day and night is determined by what part of Earth is facing the sun. Half of the Earth faces toward the sun and half of earth faces away from the sun. As the Earth spins on it's axis, we get daylight in one side of the earth, and night time in the other side of the earth. It is never possible to have night time, or day time, on all the earth at the exact same time.
