There are a lot of reasons why an engine might not start. You may need to be a bit more specific in your question. I also don't know your technical expertise level. But here are some obvious places to start:

1. Does it have gas? (Check the gauge, listen for the fuel pump etc. check the fuel pump fuse.)

2. Is the engine mechanically sound? (Check compression, open the oil cap or remove the distributor cap and see if the camshaft is going up and down etc.)

3. Check the engine service light. If it is on find out what the computer thinks is wrong and fix it.

4. Check to see if the ignition system is working. BTW don't just pull a spark plug wire. This can wreck the electronics. I would pull a spark plug and make sure it is properly grounded before checking for spark.

If none of these tests help chances are there is something more seriously wrong with your engine, and you may need to get a mechanic to check it.

Do you have spark? If you do, check your cam/crank timing marks to ensure the spark is when the piston is TDC (top dead center).

No they will not fit. after 1994 the Geo Metro developed a new more curved body system. You can use a 1989 - 1994 Geo Metro door though.
