Yes, as long as the plug and receptacle match in pin configurations, it can be done.
Nominal residential voltage is 120/240 volts. Not sure from you description if the plug is just rated at 230 volts or is supplying 230 volts (It is likely that the plug may be rated at 230 volts, but only operating at 120 volts). A typical hand held hair dryer would operate on 120 volts. A commercial hair dryer might operate at 220 volts, but must be plugged into a 220 supply.
No, in North America the plug configuration will not allow that to happen. The blade configuration for 120 volts are in parallel where as the 220 volt configuration are in tandem.
The significance of the red, black, and green wires in a three-pin plug typically corresponds to their functionality. The red wire is usually the live wire, the black wire is the neutral wire, and the green wire is the earth wire. These colors help to identify and properly connect the wires for safe and correct electrical wiring.
Use a step-up transformer from 110 volts to 220 volts. Try getting one at Home Depot or SEARS.
To wire a 220 plug correctly, you need to connect the red and black wires to the hot terminals, the white wire to the neutral terminal, and the green or bare wire to the ground terminal. Make sure to follow the specific instructions provided with the plug and turn off the power before starting the wiring process.
220
You need two hot legs of 110 volts to make 220. While each led is 110 volts to neutral, between the two hot legs you have 220v. You should have two different hot legs of 110, a neutral and a ground to meet code now a days.
The last time I was in France, everything was 220 Vol0s, therefore, no neutral.
The hot wires are red and black. White is the neutral, and there should be a bare or greencolored wire for grounding.

Yes, but you need a converter that changes 220 to 110, if you plug it into a 110 plug. Of course, if you plug it into a 220 outlet you don't need a converter, but in either case you will need a plug adapter.
A device that uses a 220 15 amp plug requires a 220-volt outlet with a 15 amp capacity.
To properly wire a 3-prong 220 plug, first, identify the hot wires (usually black and red) and the neutral wire (usually white). Connect the black and red wires to the two brass screws on the plug and the white wire to the silver screw. Make sure to tighten the screws securely and double-check your connections before plugging in the appliance.
