MN> 1. Can TinyX use monochrome buffer ( depth=1) in Linux even though the

Yes.  fb can deal with 1bpp framebuffers.

MN> 2. If the answer to above question is YES, what are steps to create it in
MN> Linux?

Both Xvesa and Xfbdev will take depth one modes into account.  The
relevant code is in vesa.c:vesaScreenInitialize and
fbdev.c:fbdevScreenInitialize respectively where fb[].visuals includes
1<<StaticGray and fb[].depth gets initialised to 1.
