Answer 1

Not sure if it will work, but in theory it should.
1. create a prefab of the desired ui element
2. process the click and get the mouse position (google OnScreenPosition)
3. create an object, set canvas as its parent (X.transform.parent = Y.transform; )
4. save a link to this object for further manipulation.
