Hit the ball any way you want as long as it is tossed from your hand and is struck before it hits the ground. There are many famous examples of players with injuries who had to serve underhanded.

Yes and you can hit and underhand serve also. Champ barring some kind of frozen shoulder you should save the backhand serve for beer pong.

i've taught tennis for two years
just go with a conventional serve, especially if you're still learning. doing anything but a real serve is kindof bad ettiquite if you're playing a real match.
definitely try to put spin on your serve though, that's fancy and an excellent skill

Like an underhand serve, you can do it as long as you don't let the ball bounce just before you hit it.

it is allowed. you can serve however you want, as long as you throw the ball and hit it before it touches the ground

There's nothing that says you can't.... However, it's bad form.
