Not under current legal models in most countries.
Generally, you own the land as far down as you actually use it, and as far below that as is necessary to provide structural support for what you do use. Same with airspace above it.
In most cities, most of the land beneath buildings has been claimed by the city/state through eminent domain long ago, and used for utility lines, subways, sewers, etc.

Probably not. You can own the property and someone else can own the mineral rights to it if you don't make sure you can purchase them with the land.

Not unless you also purchase any mineral rights to the property, which most home buying contracts do not.

Im pretty sure there are zoning restrictions as to how far above and how far below your parcel you are allowed to go.
