Yes, if your bone is good enough to support the implant, not always placing an implant has to necessitate the bone graft.
Yes, you can, but you may need a bone graft during the procedure or not. It all depends on the bone around the proposed site of the implant. Visit your dentist for the best answer regarding your specific situation.
Yes, but if bone grafting is recommended, then you need to do it so the implant will be solid enough.
That depends on the specific case. There obviously needs to be enough bone to adequately support the implant and all the forces placed on it generated by chewing. So if there is not enough bone you need a bone graft to place the implant. The best way to find out if you need or don't need a graft is a consult with a dental professional with a CBCT.
Depends on how much bone you have and the quality of bone present. Your dentist would be able to tell you.

You can if there is enough bone to support the implant. If there is not enough bone in height, depth, and width, grafting will be necessary.
Most of the time.
