I wouldn't do that! Any metal can cause arcing inside the oven, which can damage your microwave, and possibly cause a fire. Those little, aluminum-foil "platforms" in microwaveable foods (the things that give your microwave pizza a crispy crust) are specially designed, so they won't cause a problem.
Use plastic wrap instead.

Depends on the oven. My new microwave says I can use aluminum foil as long as it does not touch the edges. Check your manual. If it is older, I would say NO.

There are some microwaves that you can use foil in if it's in small quantities. But I would not recommend it.

NO NO NO! Foil will cause arcing and will ruin your microwave, the food, and possible cause you harm to. NO!

Only if you plan on buying a new one because that's what you'll have to do because it will blow up. But at least you'll get to see some really cool sparkles.
