No. Swimming Pools have chlorine or salt-water, both of which prevent the growth of mosquito larvae, so even if a mosquito lays eggs in a swimming pool, the eggs will die before becoming larvae.
As long as you keep your pool regularly chlorinated then the mosquito larvae will not have a suitable water pH to survive in. If you slack off on the chlorination then the water will start to turn a greenish color and that is when the larvae will thrive.
Yes because they use their tail to breathe, but if they are on land they cant hold themselves up.
aerated and chlorinated pools are safe from mosquito laid eggs

Yes - mosquito larvae are like potato chips to goldfish! I have a container water garden on my patio and earlier this week I noticed that it was completely full of hundreds of mosquito larvae swimming around in the water. I bought two (just two!) goldfish and put them in it this morning. Within the course of three hours, the two goldfish had eaten every single mosquito larvae - not a single one left.
