An outlet may feel warm when nothing is plugged in due to loose wiring or a faulty connection, which can lead to overheating. This can be a fire hazard and should be addressed by a qualified electrician to prevent potential dangers.
The outlet may feel warm even when nothing is plugged in due to electrical resistance in the wiring, which can generate heat. This can be caused by a variety of factors, such as overloaded circuits or poor connections. It is important to address this issue promptly to prevent potential fire hazards.

Generally, no. We usually try to avoid having a lot of things plugged into one outlet, which is the usual meaning of "octopus connection" when we talk about things electrical. If we get a lot of stuff plugged into one outlet or a single outlet strip, we could approach (or exceed) the current rating on the outlet and end up tripping a circuit breaker. Less things plugged in is better.
