Yes, you can in many areas. Text-to-911 service was started May 15, 2014. Most of the larger carriers support it, but whether your county does or not affects the other end of the call, and not all areas support the service yet. There is a list of areas where it is available that you can access from the FCC page: fcc.gov/consumers/guides/what-you-need-know-about-text-911

Even where it is available, the FCC suggests that you still make a voice call when possible.

How is your INFO set up on police records for phones can police see every text message including apps messages if my parents give cops my phone?

The text messages are stored on the network's computer - NOT your phone. They are simply downloaded to your phone when they're received. The police simply need to serve a warrant on the company, to have them print out your messages. The don't need your phone !
