No for the period part. See above answer about the shedding of the lining of the uterus. A baby can develop and become viable outside of the uterus though, as long as the embryo attaches itself to a blood supply. My nursing instructor was a part of a birth such as this. The embryo attached itself to the liver, a generous blood supply and was a viable birth. The embryo may accidentally attach elsewhere along its path to the uterus and begin to grow. Such sites may include the fallopian tubes, cervix, ovary, abdominal cavity and in her case the liver. However their must be a good blood supply for a viable birth, which is not the case with the tubes, cervix or ovary.

Its possible to be born without a uterus but then you wont get periods. You can still get bleeding from the genital tract which may be due to some other cause like trauma or some bleeding diathesis (blood coagulation disorder ) but it ill never be cyclical like uterine bleding. (the so called periods or the menstrual cycle is due to response of endometrium to the cyclical changes in secretion of gonadal hormones secreted in body. And only endometrium reacts to it.)

I agree with "dumplemuffin". A period is the periodic shedding of the inner layer of the uterus called endometrium. So Q.E.D.

No, the bleeding is the lining sloughing off the inside of the uterus.
