Longetivity and strength, depends, a $60 FIE ain't a Ruger single six. But generally yes a .22 revolver should last several lifetimes.

Penetrating a human skull, depends on ammo and the person, but generally yes, I shoot pigs in the head all the time with satisfactory results.

For self defence you need something else.
