Yes you are. - Who told you that you couldn't?
Right Shoulder, if earned - Always.
Left shoulder - It should be only your assigned unit.

Yes, if you deployed to one of the authorized areas you earned that patch.

Yes, as long as you've earned it from an overseas tour. I'd make sure that your Combat Patch/Insignia memorandum is updated in your iPERMS/Record File.
