No the worm its self is not a decomposer but it is useful to the decomposing process. For example in your compost you would want worms because they eat tunnels through your compost letting the air through it casing it to decompose faster. They are not decomposers but help things to decompose.
yes
An earthworm is an omnivore (but more specifically a detritivore as they mainly eat decaying plant matter). It eats whatever material (plant or animal) that it ingests from the soil.

An example of a detritivore is a worm. Worms feed on decaying organic matter such as dead plants and animals, breaking them down into smaller particles that can be further decomposed by bacteria and fungi. This process of decomposition is important for recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem.
I believe a shield bug is a detritivore
That vulture is a successful detritivore.
A Fiddler Crab is a marine detritivore
No, I'm pretty sure Hyenas are not detritivores.
A Sea star is a detritivore that lives in a coral reef
no
yes in that it eats dead animals. however a hyena is correctly termed a scavenger not detritivore.
yes
