Understanding that it is a calling into the service of God, now, let's say he wants to come back. Is it true that "Once you go Vatican, you can't go back again?" What about you leaving Vatican? Can you come back again?

NO, it's a lifetime commitment. Once you enter and accepted the order that's for life. But if you want to break that vow by resigning from your commitment, God will understand your case. He's a merciful God, not a by condemning God. Above all, He is a Just and Loving God.

In a manner of speaking, yes they can. I've worked with one. No different from a nun giving back her vows and going back into non-religious life.

Yes he can but it would be sad because usually they are called to this life of service by God and to deny that calling would be sad indeed.

Yes... they probably won't let him change his mind again and come back, but he can always leave.

They do, but they should ask for permission to the Church for a valid reason.
