Can you still use a golf club if the piece connecting the shaft and the head no longer sticks?
If the hosel is broken, it's probably not worth fixing. If the shaft has broken, leaving you with a clubhead with a little bit of shaft down in the hosel, it's not a big deal to re-shaft it. A local Golf shop can do it, or you can use it as your excuse to explore the wonderful world of clubmaking. Best case there's enough of the broken shaft sticking out so that you can grab it with vise-grips. Heat the hosel with a propane torch until the epoxy bond fails, then twist the broken piece out. If not, you can use a shaft extractor, which is like a screw extractor (a.k.a. an easy-out to get a grip on the shaft, then heat it with a torch as before. Either way, once you get the hosel cleaned out, re-shaft as usual.
You can most definitely drill the excess shaft that is broken off in the hosel if that is the case, then if you want, you CAN make an even cut across the old shaft, as low as possible, and use that shaft to reshaft, but that will result in a club up to 2 inches shorter. Regardless, if you do reshaft, find the strongest epoxy you can, because I have been reshafting clubs for a good while and I have given up on the cheap stuff, it just doesn't cut it. (Especially on irons)
Your local pro can and will repair the club if it is worth repairing, but don't bother if it's not worth more than $50-$100.
You can reshaft yourself by drilling out the old piece of shaft left in the head or heat the shaft/head up to break the old glue bond and pull. Find a local place that sells heads, shafts, etc of try www.golfsmith.com. They have a wealth of information.
Well, if you are talking about the small black plastic piece that sits where the shaft meets the hosel, which is called a ferrule, than yes. I am assuming that is the piece you are talking about, because if the actual connection wasn't sticking it wouldn't be playable anyway. If the ferrule is loose, you can take a little bit of superglue and stick it back down.
If it is on a wood head then no, but you could use a marker pen to colour in the mark to make it less noticable. However it will not affect the playing characteristics in any way, so only if you are worried about it. If it is in a wedge or iron, you can sometimes grind out the dent it it is on a leading edge or the sole of the club.
Simple/cheap fix super glue. But you should really take it to your local pro/golf shop and get them to refix the head, this will be will a much stronger epoxy resin. If you have the equipment you could do it yourself, you would need to remove the old head and clean off all the old epoxy. Then prepare the new epoxy place on shaft and twist into the head and leave to dry for about 24 hours.
You must mean the ferrule of a club. You can usually knock it back into position with a hammer etc. But if you want a long term fix you can use super glue, or do it properly with golf club epoxy.
If the actual head is coming off the club you can either take it to your local pro or golf shop and get them to refix the head, this is a very inexpensive process. If however the ferrule is coming lose, you can simply glue it back with shaft epoxy, however, the ferrule is used for cosmetic purposes only, so if you are unable to glue it, you do not need to worry.
A clubhead can be reattached with an epoxy glue. Any proshop or golf store can do this for a nominal fee.

Put a blade into a tapered shaft?
A replacement blade can be put into a tapered shaft as long as the blade has a tapered hosel. A standard hosel blade will not fit into a tapered shaft. The tapered shaft must also actually be a shaft and not a recently broken one-piece stick. Some players try to cut broken blades off of one-piece sticks and then think they can replace the blade in the remaining shaft. This can work in principle but only at the expense of the natural performance of the stick. It is generally not recommended.
