Yes. Possums in suburban areas have been known to feed on cat food if it has been left out overnight. As a rule, it does not form part of the possum's natural diet, of course, but suburban possums are opportunistic creatures which will feed on household sraps.

Can a cat attack and eat a possum?

Cats and possums are reasonably evenly matched in their ability to fight and defend themselves against the other. It is highly unlikely a cat would eat a possum, but it might try eating a possum joey. In Australia, possums are at much greater risk from dogs than they are from cats. It is possible, though not likely, that the possum might kill the cat, especially if it is an indoor cat. True possums - those native to Australia - are shy creatures that would rather run from a fight than confront a cat, but they could certainly lash out in self-defence. (Possums are not the same as opossums of North America.)

How many pounds of food does a cat eat monthly?

This really depends on the quality of the food the cat is fed on, also how much food the cat eats in a day (the lower quality the food, the more the cat will eat). For a cat fed on a premium-quality wet cat food, it would probably eat approximately 15lbs of food per month.
