Can a faulty CV joint cause a shaky car and vibrations in the steering wheel at certain speeds?
not really, have the tires balanced...when they have the wheels off to balance the tires, then have the guy....ok maybe a girl...look around your front end for any obvious problems, like a bad CV boot/joint!!:) and read a good book.. everyone should have a manual for their vehicle, and the library should have a professional manual available...in the reference section, you'll have to make copies of the important sections...good luck :) Normally no, CV joint problems usually become apparent when cornering mostly very tightly, there can be a rattling or clunky noise. The problem you describe is more likely localised to the wheel or tyre, e.g unbalanced wheel/tyre, a buckle or dent in a wheel rim, a bulge in a tyre, tyre under-inflated.

Steering wheel shaking at high speeds?
Could be a minor out of balance condition with one of the tires, or a minor alignment issue that is unnoticeable at lower speeds. Also the tires may not be rated for the speeds you are attempting and are distorting. Another possibility is a harmonic imbalance, the tread of the tires may create a noise that causes a wobble in the steering, the sound is always there but raises to a harmful pitch at a certain speed.

It is possible you need to have the front wheels balanced. Unbalanced wheels will cause vibrations at certain speeds.
Will tire fall off if it's not balanced?
It's possible, but unlikely. However it will shake violently at certain speeds and may damage steering gear and tie rods.
