Of course! a nuclear bomb can annihilate pretty much anything so why not a bloody measly cockroach!
The issue is not the explosion it is the radioactive fallout afterwards. If the cockroach survives the explosion it has a much better chance of surviving high levels of radioactivity than a human that survived the explosion would. The LD50 (i.e. dose that kills 50% of those exposed) for radioactivity is much higher for all insects (not just cockroaches) than it is for mammals (not just humans). However enough radioactivity will kill any living thing!

Yes if they are sheltered from the initial extreme temperatures which would toast them. The remaining effects due to radiation are within the roach (species) toleration although individual roaches may die. That's how evolution works.

If a nuclear weapon exploded on a nuclear Power Plant would the explosion radius increase?
No, a nuclear explosion on a nuclear power plant would not cause the explosion radius to increase. The explosion radius would be determined by the yield of the nuclear weapon itself, not by the presence of the power plant.
