Near the border, yes, but you'll probably get a crummy exchange rate. It's a lot easier to take money out of a local ATM using a debit card. Just check with your bank(s) first and find out whether there's a conversion fee. Some banks charge as much as 3%, some have no fee at all.

Yes, you can use American dollars in Mexico in most border areas (like Tijuana) and major tourist destinations (like Cancun, Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan). When you get further inland it's not so easy, but you can change US dollars into Pesos at any bank in any town/city. ATMs are generally easy to find in larger towns and cities. Be careful when shopping with US dollars, as not every vendor will give you a good rate of exchange.

Most places in Mexico will take US Dollars, especially anywhere near a tourist site. However, the thing to watch for is the different exchange rates. You can easily lose 20% or more in the exchange rate.

No. They use the Mexican Peso (MXP). However in or around tourist areas, many street vendors and establishments accept US Dollars.
