No, you wouldn't, but in reality, the age difference between you and the sibling seeking cusotdy would have to be fairly substantial.

Can you move out at 14. Even if its to a friends house?
In most places, a person cannot legally move out on their own before the age of 18. It is important to discuss any concerns or issues with a trusted adult or seek help from local authorities if needed. Staying with a friend's family without parental permission may not be legally permitted and could lead to complications.
You are 16 years old and want to be emancipated by your father who is an alcholic and your mom has custody of you I have seen him once in three years and he wont call for months or even years?
It does not sound like you know what being emancipated means. Being emancipated is where a minor under the age of 18 no longer wants their parents to be responsible for them and wants to be considered an adult by the state. This would mean that you would have all the rights of an 18 year old at the age of 16. If your mother has custody of you and you have no problem with her then i would see no reason to try to get emancipated.

Does an adult sibling have to honor the request of a deceased parent to become guardian of his minor sibling?
No, it's not legally binding. It's not even sure you would get custody, it's up to the judge. Parents can only have requests of what will happen to their child when they pass away and there is no parent left. They can not decide what will happen. In your case I would recommend you try to find a relative or a friends parents since if your sibling end up in foster care it can be far away and if he/she gets adopted you are not allowed to see each other unless the adoptive parents say so. Would be a shame if you loose contact.
Can an un-emancipated 17 year old in Texas move to a different state if they will be continuing education in the next state and have a place to stay?
No, not unless their parents agree to allow it. And even if the parents agree to allow it, an unemancipated minor cannot enroll themselves in school. The parents would have to give custody of the minor to an adult in the other state and then that adult would be the minor's guardian.
