Apparently it's not a real word. Click on the first two links below to see what Google and dictionary.com say about it.
But evidently there are quite a few people who think it is a word, and who use it as one, as you can see by the last two links below. In most cases, they mean dictatorial, but in the last link below (at bestprices) it is obvious that the author of a published book thought it meant something else.
So I'm not sure how much this really helps you -- At least, you can see, it looks like it's arguable. (I think I'll go along with the dictionaries and guess that dictorial isn't really a word, and that the author of that book was an amateur writer and was misusing it.)

No, it is not a word. You may see it being used, but it's being used incorrectly.

Yes. It pertains to a dictator's power.
