Scout, Jem, and Dill have very active imaginations. They spent most of their childhood fantasizing about Boo Radley.

Well, honey, Dill tells Scout and Jem that his father is the president of a railroad, but it turns out he's just a good-for-nothing man who doesn't pay much attention to him. Kids sure do have a way of spinning tall tales, don't they? Just goes to show, you can't believe everything you hear, especially from a little rascal like Dill.

Scout and Dill go outside because Dill doesn't like the way that Mr. Horace Gilmer is bashing Tom with the questions he is asking and in the fashion he is asking them in such a demanding tone and as if he did something wrong to Mr. Gilmer. That is why Dill and Scout go outside.
No, Dill does not want to have an aunt like Aunt Alexandra. He enjoys the freedom and adventure that comes from spending time with Scout and Jem, and having a strict and proper aunt like Aunt Alexandra would likely limit his fun and spontaneity.
