Can one receive Communion from a St. Pius X priest? Is it the True Presence of Jesus Christ? Was Archbishop Lebfevre excommunicated?

Ordinarily speaking, one should not receive Communion from an SSPX priest because the Eucharist is a sign of unity and a Catholic should avoid the appearance of unity with a schismatic society. However, if one is on his deathbed and does not have access to a Catholic priest, one may receive the last rites from any validly-ordained priest.

Assuming the priest is validly ordained, yes.

Yes. See Ecclesia Dei by Pope John Paul II.
