Will that be good for indoor pics or mainly outdoor?

That would have to be done in post processing on your computer. Do you have image editing software such as Lightroom, Photoshop or even open source (free!) GIMP?

Search online for a selective colour tutorial in which ever program you have access to, but would most commonly be achieved using layer masks and desaturation adjustment I suppose.

I am good with publisher, would it be possible to do it with that or defo need one of the following you mentioned?

Publisher as in Microsoft Publisher? I am pretty sure you could not do it with this, it's not an image editor.

I reckon you would need a dedicated image editor to do the kind of thing you are wanting. Certainly for the best results any way.

You can shoot in B&W straight out of the camera but not selective colour. I would never shoot B&W from camera any way to be honest, just do the conversion in processing afterwards. You can easily go from colour to B&W but not B&W to colour.
