PLO5 good opporunety to squeeze preflop?

The thing is that usually in micros you won't squeeze anyone. Folding equity is pretty low, cos people just aren't raise-folding or call-folding preflop. When you 3bet, it will usually be 3-4 way flop and you are oop.

So when you 3bet, you should be prepared for that.

what about if they fold? ♦ are those cards good for 3bet pot HU or 3way?

That hand is a lot better in HU pot. But still it's not a monster, gap is on the top. Most of the time you will hit bottom 2 pairs, low flush draw or low-end straight draw/wrap. And then oop against 2-3 players you are just hoping that your draws are even alive.

At higher limits, I think it's fine to 3 bet this preflop as it's important to have a 3 betting range wider than aces out of the blinds. However people aren't paying any attention to this at lower limits.

I am definitely not folding preflop but you don't automatically need to squeeze here unless you have some read that the 2 cold callers are pretty weak and might actually fold to a 3 bet.
