Yes you can faircatch a punt or placekick after a safety. You are then intitled to choose where to put the ball in play along the yard line where the faircatch was made. You may also freekick from that yard line. That placekick may score three points for a good field goal. Tha advantage is the receivers may not get closer than 10 yards to the free kick line giving a real advantage on a long kick.

Is punt returner who gives fair catch signal afforded protection after the punt hits the ground in high school game under nfhs rules?

The way "fair catch" is defined under NFHS rules (2-9-1), the receiver must give a valid signal AND must also make the catch before it can be called a "fair catch." If the ball hits the ground, there is no fair catch and therefore no protection for the receiver is warranted.
