can you monitor mic input sound as you record?

Not from this device. It will on iPad for example using garage band iOS

Does this plug in smartphone Android???

It plugs into any phone with a regular head phone jack input.

Which is the best microphone to use with this for recording acoustic guitars?

It features a XLR-3-31 (1: GND. 2: HOT, 3: COLD) input and you can use any condenser microphones with phantom power.

Could you use this for an electric drum kit?

HiI plug mine into my mixer so I can mix vocals with music from my iphone, but I guess as long as you can aux out the drums to the Tascam then I would say yes. It has a settings for guitar and mic so I think it would be ok.
