If you have a good enough light source, yes. They do need direct sun though.
They need heat to grow as well. Consider a heat lamp. Otherwise they will drop their flowers and you would never get a tomato.
Sure you can if you have a full sun location. You probably won't have tomatoes as there are no pollinating insects inside. It will be your job to pollenate the flowers.
Yes but they will not taste the same. They will taste like hothouse tomatoes. Try to go outside if you can.
You can if you use a grow light. they won't be as good, but its possible.
It's possible if you can put it right by a sunny window. Tomatoes need about 8 hours of sun, but be careful not to "cook" them by letting them get overheated. You might also need to use a grow light if the plant is not looking particularly happy. If you want fruit, which I'll assume you do or you wouldn't be trying to grow a tomato plant, you'll have to hand pollinate the blossoms(spread pollen from one flower to another). Try using Q-tips. Nights need to be cool for the fruit to set(below 65).
Yes it is, you just have to make sure they have plenty of sunlight, they make patio tomatoes just for that.
It's possible , but not preferable . If you have a patio, porch or balconey, plant them in a big pot & grow them outside . They'll grow better & taste better. If you must grow them inside , put a fan on them , for at least an hour every day . It will help to make the plants stronger . Might help the flavor . (?)
