No. FIFA stopped giving automatic qualifications to the defending champion after the 2002 tournament.
Brazil is the only country that qualifies automatically as the host.

Nope they won't. Only host country, Brazil gets the automatic entry in 2014. FIFA stopped automatic entry to the winner of previous world cup.

No!
Only the host is allowed automatic qualification.
This means, if Spain win this time(I seriously doubt it) and don't perform in the qualifying round, they will not go to Brazil.
The winners are qualified automatically in UEFA Champions League.

yes. the champion from the previous year receives an automatic bid to the next FIFA world cup. so this year, either spain or the netherlands will definitely be in the cup in 2014.
