Well did you beat Red, he should at Mt. Silver's peak (after Elite four(Kanto))
In order to get Hoenn Starters, you have to have defeated Red at Mt. Silver. Then, go to Silph Co. in Saffron City. Once there, talk to Steven, the Hoenn Champion. Choose one of the colored stones to match up to the type of the Hoenn Starter pokemon.
No you can not. You can only stay in Shinno in Platinum. On Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver you can go to Kanto but not Hoenn and Shinno.
I think you have to trade to see them. Actually, you have to trade to see lots of things in Hoenn. But it'd be worth it; you get a Johto starter for completing the Hoenn Dex.
Trade with other people who have heart gold or soul silver.
