Please don't. There are 4 components of cellaring that wine requires:
Consistent temperatures of around 55 F
Consistent humidity of around 70%
Vibration free environment
Darkness
A refrigerator provides none of these. If your in-home temperatures remain below 70 F, then the wine will be fine, but you'll have to work on the other three components.
Most fine wine retailers offer storage - I have thousands of bottles stored at my favorite facility.
The toilet tank idea, while innovative, has to be one of the most ludicrous ideas for wine storage I've ever encountered!

This is less than ideal. Your wine should probably be kept at 55 - 65 F. If there is no place else in your home that stays cool at all, you could try putting it is a water proof bag and putting it the toilet tank.

Yes absolutely.
Find the place in the fridge where the temperature is around 12°C

I THINK YOU CAN as long as you take it off 1 hour or more before drinking it!
if you want to keep it for years , I m not sure , it might prevent the good process of ageing!
