Not really. Hurricanes can only form over warm ocean water. Once they hit land they weaken rapidly and don't stay as hurricanes for very long.
Generally true. A hurricane's name becomes available for reuse every 6 years. If a storm is especially deadly or destructive, however, the name may be retired in which case it will not be used to name a future storm.
Hurricanes, at least in the Atlantic, are named from a pre-chosen list for the year. Every time a new system becomes a tropical storm it is given the next name on the list. The names are in alphabetical order with the letters Q, U, X, Y, and Z excluded. This gives a total of 21 available names for each year. If the National Hurricane Center runs out of names for a given year it will start using letters of the Greek alphabet to name storms. This has only happened once. Each list of names is re-used every six years. If a hurricane is particularly deadly or destructive, however, its name will be retired, meaning no new storms will get that name. It will be replaced by a new name of the same gender and beginning letter. For example the name Katrina was retired after the 2005 season and replaced with Katia for 2011 and subsequent years.

Once all the letters have been used in a season, scientists turn to the Greek alphabet to name additional hurricanes. They start with Alpha and move through the Greek alphabet, using a new name for each subsequent storm. These names are only used for storms that occur in the Atlantic Basin.

There is a pre-ordered list which has names for each of the next hurricanes. Once the list is gone over. They start over.
