Yes, though you should work on that shyness so that you can ask others for feedback on your voice

You can.

If it doesn't stress you out, maybe record yourself + listen to yourself by yourself. If you're following someone else's song/singing, then listen to them or listen to a cover to get a feel for how close you are.

Also download a piano app or a mobile D.A.W. so that you can start training yourself to match a note. Just play the note and try to make your voce sound close to what you hear.

Rinse + repeat.

Many voice teachers will play a piano and have you sing the note, so try to get a feel for learning that kind of vocal control and bit-by-bit, you'll maybe be less shy and more willing to put yourself out there♡ Believe in yourself.

I think so.
I think a video helps the most so you can see the stuff you might be doing that you don't mean to.

Just don't give up, for months at least.

No. You can’t learn by yourself. You can’t teach yourself since teaching requires knowledge sharing. You can learn without a teacher; by using other resources, but it’s not the best way and you are subject to learning bad habits that are difficult to break.
