I understand that Heroku is built in top of Amazon EC2, I was wondering if it's possible to select in which region your dynos should be spinned off, can I instruct Heroku to spin the dynos in the Tokyo Region for instance?

You can view the amount of free dyno hours remaining by using the CLI. You can do this by running heroku ps on one of your free apps. Alternatively, you can also view this on Dashboard's billing page, which is refreshed daily to display the updated amount.
The output of the heroku info <APPNAME> heroku regions --json command can be used in combination with this AWS IP Ranges json information to figure out which exact region you're looking at. When you run heroku info <APPNAME> , you will see the general region.
Right now Heroku only runs in the us-east region. My understanding is that they are working on expanding to other regions for redundancy after there was an EC2 outage which knocked them out for 8 hours or so.
Edit They have just recently released the EU region. Read more at https://blog.heroku.com/archives/2013/4/24/europe-region
