a) for x in dir/*; do dos2unix $x ; done
(Instead of dos2unix you can use your own commandline as yo had done
before)
b) perl -n -p -i -e 's/\r//' dir/*
(Untested code. Check on a dummy file before trying)

No. This is because the shell creates a different parallel process for
every command in the pipes of the command-line. Since they have all been
spawned from the shell at the same time, a variable in environment of one
of the process is not available in a parallel process.
