According to me, no. Lupin talks profusely about his problems as a werewolf, and I'm sure we could have seen the shadow of a regret if it had been there. The closer he came was when he almost murdered baby Snape. And, we know that the Wolfsbane was not available when he was at Hogwarts, but it was probably invented not long afterwards, so...
But this point will be important - you don't create a werewolf to let him sit in a chair. :))

No again. He was suspected, remember? Therefore, he had to be in his human 
form to be able to go to Voldemort and betray the Potters.

It is. Lupin is sure of that, and he would know how things happened from Dumbledore. And who else could have been?

Time-turners are overrated.

> 5. Will Harry travel back in time and be mistaken for James?

No. It's apparently difficult enough to be himself. And, he couldn't fool people who really knew James well.

No. Dumbledore had seen it all when Snape was a student.

I really don't see Snape trust Sirius's information after the events of that day, but miracles will never cease...

> 8. Who were Lily's best friends?

Had she any? Shouldn't we know about them by now?

> 9. Whose brain attacked Ron? (Flamel? Godric?)

They wouldn't use such valuable things for experiments, imo. And how they were able to keep Godric's brain from the Middleages?

> 10. Will Harry eventually be able to do magic without a wand?

No. JKR said that real magic always requires a wand.

Ok, here is my guess. Now answer me this, it's obsessing me: did Lucius teach Snape all those drawling tones and silky voices? The self-assurances, the 
feline grace? Was he trained that way in order to fight as a Death Eater? Are they friends?
