the word "do" is used with I, you,they as a subject:

The word"does" is for he,she, it:

The words"had " and "have" may be used by themselves as present tense verbs:
He had an idea. They have an idea.
OR "had " and "have" can be used as helper verbs for past tenses
He has looked all night. They have looked all night.
"can" has the connotation of being able to do it. "could has the connotation of it being a possibility. These two are sometimes used interchangeable.
I can come tomorrow. I could possibly come tomorrow.
This is a quick overview. There are other tenses as well which can get to be complicated.
Hope this helps

The More You Get Into LITERARY Sciences, the More You Become --- (1) A READER (2) A Printer , But, when you come onto the SOURCE of all Literature, you WRITE, DICTATE, EXPRESS, TEACH. All depends upon What, Where, Who, When, Whose, Which, Why, Whom etc. are you looking for, my friend.

be more clear on your question
some words can be used both present and past tense
each word you mentioned, really needs to be clarified
as to its tense, present, past, future
typically, do - present tense
does - past
had - past
have - present
can - present
could - past
not always though
