Answer 1

No, you can't create your own file hierarchy in drawable directory.

But you can see in http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/providing-resources.html:

However, if you need access to original file names and file hierarchy, you might consider saving some resources in the assets/ directory (instead of res/raw/). Files in assets/ are not given a resource ID, so you can read them only using AssetManager.

If you have very many resources, it can be useful for you.

Answer 2

No, the resources mechanism doesn't support subfolders in the drawable directory.You can't used.
