Yes.

The answer is 4, but you will need another 2x external digital converter/preamp to hook up to the S/PDIF inputs.

No.

Whoever wrote what you read was pulling your leg and/or had no idea what they were talking about. It was not possible with the mBox 1 and it is not possible with the mBox2.

mBox1 = 2 inputs period
mBox2 = 4 inputs period

002/002R = 18 inputs
