Of course it's possible. Much of the Great Plains and southwest USA were once under water.

1) According to the universal deluge theory, yes. jk 2) "Continental drift has reconfigured the Earth's oceans, joining and splitting ancient oceans to form the current oceans. Ancient oceans include: Bridge River Ocean, the ocean between the ancient Insular Islands and North America. Iapetus Ocean, the southern hemisphere ocean between Baltica and Avalonia. Panthalassa, the vast world ocean that surrounded the Pangaea supercontinent. Rheic Ocean Slide Mountain Ocean, the ocean between the ancient Intermontane Islands and North America. Tethys Ocean, the ocean between the ancient continents of Gondwana and Laurasia. Khanty Ocean, the ocean between Baltica and Siberia. Mirovia, the ocean that surrounded the Rodinia supercontinent. Paleo-Tethys Ocean, the ocean between Gondwana and the Hunic terranes. Proto-Tethys Ocean, Pan-African Ocean, the ocean that surrounded the Pannotia supercontinent. Superocean, the ocean that surrounds a global supercontinent. Ural Ocean, the ocean between Siberia and Baltica." Source and further information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean
