To be confirmed by others, but I'm certain that Irish people did serve on the Allies side in WW2 but only as members/volunteers of the British army. Ireland was officially neutral in WW2. I heard/read that British soldiers marooned off the coast of Ireland were interred in Irish "POW" camps in Ireland. These camps were pretty lax though, allowing them to be out during the day but had to be back in camp at nightfall.

How many years can the Irish Prime Minister Serve?

The maximum term of an Irish government is 5 years, after which there is an election. A Taoiseach, which is the official title of the head of an Irish government, also can have a 5 year term, but can be re-elected as often as he is chosen. So there is no limit to the terms a Taoiseach can serve.
