Yes, it can destroy the block, but the diamond block will disappear and you will not get any diamonds. You need and Iron Pickaxe or better (Gold and Diamond) to mine Diamond, and receive the diamonds.

If you dont have a diamond/gold pickaxe you may still get diamond/gold by using iron pickaxe
Yes it will break eventually. It does wear out but takes the longest of all the other kinds to finally break.
You cannot break bedrock on survival, even with a diamond pickaxe but you can if you have a mod that allows you or if you go on creative
To mine diamond you want to use a Iron Pickaxe. Gold will just break the break it and so will cobblestone ("break" as in it will break the block but no diamonds will be given).1. To find diamond('s) dig to bed rock, 2. then go up about 9 block above that. 3. Now dig about 6x6 in the area your in. 4. Then dig a tunnel 30 blocks in length, 5. now go back to your 6x6 are go 2 blocks over and go 30 more. 6. keep doing that until you have exhausted the area. 7. Now go up 2 blocks and start over from part 3. Happy Diamond hunting!
