Sure. It's the same as before-life.

I don't. By definition, it is possible, since atheism only suggests a lack of belief in a supreme deity or deities. In real life, I have never known any that believe in an afterlife.

No. If they did they wouldn't be Atheist.
Well they could be. But most who believe in an afterlife consider themselves Agnostic or neither.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, maybe this is the training stage for
real life. That would make this"pre-life" ,then, after this would be afterlife. Unless, of course, that would be training for the next life, which would make the first one pre-pre-life,but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,just live and try to be a good human.
The rest will take care of itself

Most don't, but there aren't any rules for being an atheist... Some Tibetan Buddhists probably meet that qualification though.

Of course not
Everlasting eternal life in a fun establishment above the clouds (or wherever) was (is!) a lie told to ancient man which severely-deluded modern man clings to to fulfil wishful thinking.
The same applies to eternal damnation in a lake of fire - or whatever other description one hears of.

i am more of an agnostic, really, but it depends. atheists are not people without beliefs in general. just ones pertaining to religion usually. i believe, in death, we are to help guide our descendants and watch over them. I find that to be much better than believing you have to be good or burn for all eternity.

Atheists are spiritually strong not to need such mental crutches to cope with the concept of death.

Some do. Most probably don't. It's not a requirement, but it's not particularly common either.

I heard a small minority believe it is possible, but I don't understand why they would think so, but then again most atheists do not make sense to me.
