for most schools yes.
Marshall University is located in Huntington, West Virginia that plays Division 1 football and there are several high schools known as Marshall that play high school football. One of these high schools is George Marshall High School located in Falls Church, Virginia.
At most high schools, juniors are allowed to play on junior varsity teams. If you are good enough to make the team, you should be able to play.

Well it usually depends on the school you go to. Because I know that my high school played football against another high school from a different state. Plus, usuallly middle schools don't play against different middle schools from out of their county. Maybe you should ask your coach about that..
You can definitely go on to play college football. Plenty of current college football players attended private high schools. Bennie Fowler from Michigan State attended Detroit Country Day which is a private school.

I would recommend checking your state athletics rulebook it should have an answer to any of your questions, but if he is 17 and a Junior in High School I would say there is no reason he cant join the team. Weather he will play or not is a totally different question. ----
