Your Bowl is not suited to keeping a fish in. I advise you to use it as a vase. If you wish to keep a (some) fish successfully you will have to observe and comply with some absolute minimums that the basic rules of fish keeping stipulate. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water:- Every tank needs a properly cycled filter running permanently:- Every tank needs to have at least 50% of its water replaced every week. Anything less than the above will not work. The fish will get sick and die in a shorter or longer time depending upon how far out from the basic rules you go.

Can you fit 4 fish in one gallon fish bowl measuring 12 by 12 inches?
It may be possible to keep 4 small fish in a one gallon fish bowl, depending on the type, size and needs of the fish you choose. It will also depend on whether or not the fish bowl has a filter, and if your fish can live without a heater. For example, because they do not get large, 4 white cloud minnows can be kept in a one gallon bowl with a filter and they do not require a heater. You can also keep a male beta or Siamese fighting fish with a few white cloud minnows; or 2 small goldfish which can grow too large or the bowl.

Absolutely not. One oscar fish needs at least a 75 gallon (US) tank on it's own as they can grow up to a foot in size. If you have already bought the fish, please return it to the store and let them know that you do not have a large enough aquarium for it.

Betta fish are about the only kind of fish that can survive with no filter.

Change the water at least weekly to keep a one-gallon betta tank clean. Change more often in anything smaller (and it's not recommended to keep them in anything smaller).

Goldfish are coldwater fish and need temperatures around 55F. Bettas are tropical fish and need temperatures around 80F so you can see that they should not be kept together anyway.Simple answer is NO. They need totally different living conditions. 1 Betta needs a 5 gallon (nominal) tank. Two goldfish need a 25 gallon tank.
