That depends on your definition of a night. A lunar night lasts about earth 14 days. No one has stayed on the moon more than about 3 earth days. The simpler answer to your question would be yes. All 6 crews spent at least one night on the lunar surface.

Apollo 11 - 1 night

Apollo 12 & 14 - 2 nights each

Apollo 15, 16 & 17 - 3 nights each

The reason the later crews were able to spend more time on the surface is because their Lunar Modules had bigger fuel tanks and an additional oxygen tank.

The basic mission of Apollo 11 was just to prove they could land. That's why they had the shortest stay of any of the lunar landing missions.

What causes the moon to have day and night?

The same thing that causes the Earth to have day and night; the Moon spins. Slowly, it is true. The Moon always has the same face turned toward the Earth, but since the Moon orbits the Earth that means that the Moon spins (relative to the Sun) once per orbit. So a "day" on the Moon lasts a little over 14 days, and the lunar "night" is just as long.

The moon will always appear over the eastern horizon at the same time each night.?

The moon does not rise at the same time each night due to its orbit around the Earth. As the moon moves through its phases, it rises about 50 minutes later each night. This variation is caused by the combination of the moon's orbit and the Earth's rotation. Consequently, the moon's position in the sky changes continually throughout the month.
