Yes you can and when you open bitmap it will give you a choice to import the image within the graph resources or just link to it on your PC.

I also use a bitmap when developing a graph that will use an image input. Whilst developing it I connect the bitmap and when finished I replace it with an input image node.

    It depends. If I am using an image as a temporary substitute, for example while developing a graph that will use inputs, I just link it. If I want to store it permanently without risk of the link becoming broken if I move files around on my PC, I import it.
