Yes.
Committing bad deeds (or sins) makes it easier to sin the next time and harder to turn back to God. This is why the worst are called the seven deadly sins:
Lust (inappropriate desire)
Gluttony (over-indulgence)
Greed (avarice)
Sloth (laziness)
Wrath (anger)
Envy (jealousy)
Pride (vanity)
The contrasting virtues are also habit forming and by practicing virtues we become more and more virtuous.
Chastity (purity)
Moderation (self-restraint)
Generosity (vigilance)
Zeal (enthusiasm)
Meekness (composure)
Charity (giving)
Humility (humbleness)
No matter how bad someone becomes, God always is ready to forgive.
With love in Christ.

Yes, bad deeds affect our judgment. Deeds express who we are. It is not possible to be a truly good person and freely choose to do bad things, at the same time.
It is possible to be a bad person and then convert to God, but it is not possible to be a bad person and think at the same time "I will fool God later by converting", because God can read the heart. A life of bad deeds, though, affects our character, and makes it less likely that we will be able to convert.
Someone can be a horrible murderer and sin etc but not ALL their lives. Conversion has to happen before death, and it has to be real.

Bad judgment affects your deeds. Yes, anyone can be saved on their deathbed.
