yes.
This occurs because the exterior part of our nostrils is made of soft CARTILAGE which tends to retain its shape when stretched.when we strech them too much,nostrils can stretch or widen .

nah, not unless you keep your finger knuckle deep up consistantly for a very very very long time without pulling it out....and to be honest, i don't think anyone's attention span is that long...
