Yes we can. Just like a normal method call as if it wasn't static. No real point in doing that though.

Answer 4

Yes, it is valid, but it's a bad practice. Even the compiler will warn you about that.

Answer 5

Yes we can. But, we should avoid it, so that it does not arise any confusion later. It is a mistake made by java at the early stage of it's release. But, later they kept it as it is, so that any existing code written that way does not break.
