Yes, you could, but you'd need to know some specific things beforehand, so as not to offend...like make sure you are appropriately covered...know where the women sit; etcetera.
Chances arevery good it'll all be in Hebrew, so unless you understand, you'll be totally lost.

Yes, of course.
Just make sure that you respect the customs and directions you are given.
I am a Gentile and have been warmly welcomed anytime I visited a synagogue, no matter whether it was Orthodox, Reform, Conservative, or any other kind.
If you have questions, call up the temple you would like to visit and just ask.
The only other comment I would make is that if the Shabbat you wanted to attend (the Saturday) happened to be Rosh Hashana or Yom Kippur (important Fall feasts) or Passover (important spring feast), you might need to get tickets (in order to help pay for the building fund and the rabbis salaries, etc.)
However, most of the time you could absolutely go and there would be no charge.
There is never any charge at my Messianic synagogue in Houston.

sure
though I will agree with Sawyer.
It took me a few months to know a Orthodox Jewish service, and that was with knowing Hebrew.
good chances are you will be lost.

Yes they are. But they will be asked to respect the way that the congregation observes (e.g. men and married women cover their heads, men and women might be separated, etc)

Surely they can attend as long as they are not disruptive.
