Yes. For each frame, call gmx select to make whatever groups suit you in an
index file, then call gmx traj with that index file to produce things
related to the velocities of the atoms in those groups.

Sure, that's what gmx traj -ov does, which is why I suggested you look at
its help text.

Generally, only by making an index group for that molecule. gmx select
likely does everything you can imagine, and more.
