Remember there are many different kinds of lipids (fatty acids, soaps, waxes, phospholipids, etc) but as far as the dietary fatty acids, the answer is No.
Triglycerides (dietary fat) are composed of 3 fatty acid chains bound to glycerol. Fatty acids are carbon chains and glycerol is 3 carbons each with an OH alcohol. An ester bond attaches each fatty acid to glycerol.
As far as energy metabolism, it can be seen that carbon and oxygen are the main substituents of energy. Even "simple sugar sub-units" are carbon rings, and during glycolysis these carbon rings are opened and broken apart to be used in the TCA cycle and other ways for energy production.
Yes, lipids are composed of glycerol and fatty acids. Glycerol molecules combine with fatty acids through ester linkages to form molecules like triglycerides, phospholipids, and sterols.
Each subunit is called a nucleotide. They have a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate group and a nucleobase

Organelles
gene (I think...) The units of a chromosome that code for traits are genes.
No. The sub-units for carbohydrates is a monosaccharide such as glucose or fructose. Fatty acids are what results from the sub-unit aliphatic compounds and glycerol.
They are the lipids. They have glycerols and fatty acids
The subunits of lipids are fats, oils, waxes, sterols and triglycerides.

Sugars
The sub-units or monomers for nucleic acids are nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule (either ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA), and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, or uracil).

Amino Acids
Carbohydrates, also called saccharides, are oxyorganic compounds. They can be either simple sugar molecules or complex carbohydrates. They can be sub-divided into the classes of monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. These all serve organisms as energy sources and as essential structural components.
