No — an eTA only authorizes air travel to Canada; different requirements apply for entry by land or sea.
A new passport requires a new eTA — the authorization is electronically linked to the specific passport number used at the time of application.
Eligibility depends entirely on citizenship — only travellers from countries with a visa-exemption agreement with Canada can apply for an eTA instead of a full visitor visa.
