AS long as the impedance is a match you can use any speake with any amp. But if the power ratings are too mismatched don't expect it to sound that good. If the amp is stronger than the speaker, the speaker can be damaged if you crank the amp up high. And if you hook an amp to a too strong speaker the amp might have trouble powering it properly.

Yes you can. The amplifier will not drive the speaker to its full power and it is important that you don't allow the amplifier to be driven hard enough to distort. Other than that, there shouldn't be any problem at all.

You CAN, but if you turn the volume too high you will destroy the speaker unless there is a fuse between them. Try a 2 or 3 amp fuse at these power levels.

There is nothing stopping you, but you risk blowing out the speaker

Yes, provided you are careful not to accidentally run it at more than 3/4 power.
