How do you pull wire in conduit?
There are both industrial and home owner cable pulling techniques. The former may involve heavy equipment and cable greasing and many people. Pulling cable on a small scale involves a snake and sometimes a pull cord. A snake is a coiled metal strip that you push through the conduit. When it comes out the other end or to a pull box you connect the wire and pull it back through the conduit. If more wire might be pulled later, also attach a pull cord so it will be left behind in the conduit for future use.

Can indoor Romex wiring be used outdoor as long as it is inside of PVC conduit?
No, according to the electrical code the cable has to have a underground rating. That said many home owners do install indoor rated cable in PVC black water pipe and bury it for outdoor installations.

How many 10 awg thhn wire can fit in half inch emt?
9-10, but the conduit may not exceed a certain length, or a certain voltage in order for you to "legally" do it. Many applications allow for conduit fill ratio's that exceed the standards of the NEC ( National Electrical Code) and most of them are short (less than 24") "chases" between control devices mounted in listed Junction boxes for that purpose. It is not advisable to fill a conduit more than the NEC allows for purposes of heat dissipation.
