• Most newer routers feature a file server USB port and the short answer is yes as long as it’s formatted for Linux or GPT.

• It most certainly can if your router has a usb port, however, whether or not you can will be dependent on the capabilities on the router in question. I've used usb mass storage on netgear routers in the past. Maybe a better choice would be a raspberry pi or other small system that you can make a small inexpensive nas with. Google "OpenMediaVault on Raspberry PI" for some ideas.
