If you mean can a circle always be drawn round a quadrilateral so that the quadrilateral is enclosed within the circle then yes as long as the diameter of the circle is large enough.

If you mean can a circle always be drawn around a quadrilateral so that it passes through all vertices then only if the opposite angles of the quadrilateral add up to 180o - such quadrilaterals are called cyclic quadrilaterals.

Is a circle can be drawn from the circumvention around a triangle intersecting the vertices?

No. Circumvention means to surround or to go around or bypass. It is not a geometric term and has nothing to do with a triangle. Having said that, a circle can be drawn from the circumcentre of any triangle so that it passes through the vertices of the triangle.
