If you don't leave your crease, you CANNOT be run out. Simple as that really.
Yes you can*

Still A. You can be run out off a no-ball.
Depends if the bowler dislodged the bail in his delivery stride, in which case its a dead ball
Neither of them would be out unless the fielding side appeal with a good hearty "how's that, I say?".
Then obviously it would be batsman A.
By the letter of the laws of cricket you are only out if the fielding side appeal correctly, even if clean bowled.

That wasn't the question. He said if it were a NO ball.
It is accepted that there is no 'correctly'. Any recognition that you think you have a wicket is sufficient, e.g. a raised arm, a cheer etc etc.

So taking that on one stage...
(a) What if, using the same scenario, batsman B did leave his crease, then returned by the time Batsman A got to him?
(b) What if, using the same scenario, batsman B did leave his crease, the batsmen crossed, then B returned to his crease before the bails at the striker's end were dislodged?
LAW 27 (APPEALS)
1. Umpire not to give batsman out without an appeal
Neither umpire shall give a batsman out, even though he may be out under the Laws, unless appealed to by a fielder. This shall not debar a batsman who is out under any of the Laws from leaving his wicket without an appeal having been made. Note, however, the provisions of 7 below.
2. Batsman dismissed
A batsman is dismissed if,
either (a) he is given out by an umpire, on appeal,
or (b) he is out under any of the Laws and leaves his wicket as in 1 above.
3. Timing of appeals
For an appeal to be valid, it must be made before the bowler begins his run up or, if he has no run up, his bowling action to deliver the next ball, and before Time has been called.
The call of Over does not invalidate an appeal made prior to the start of the following over, provided Time has not been called. See Laws 16.2 (Call of Time) and 22.2 (Start of an over).
4. Appeal "How’s That?"
An appeal "How’s That?" covers all ways of being out.
5. Answering appeals
The striker’s end umpire shall answer all appeals arising out of any of Laws 35 (Hit wicket), 39 (Stumped) or 38 (Run out) when this occurs at the wicket-keeper’s end. The bowler’s end umpire shall answer all other appeals.
When an appeal is made, each umpire shall answer on any matter that falls within his jurisdiction.
When a batsman has been given Not out, either umpire may answer an appeal, made in accordance with 3 above, if it is on a further matter and is within his jurisdiction.
6. Consultation by umpires
Each umpire shall answer appeals on matters within his own jurisdiction. If an umpire is doubtful about any point that the other umpire may have been in a better position to see, he shall consult the latter on this point of fact and shall then give the decision. If, after consultation, there is still doubt remaining, the decision shall be Not out.
7. Batsman leaving his wicket under a misapprehension
An umpire shall intervene if satisfied that a batsman, not having been given out, has left his wicket under a misapprehension that he is out. The umpire intervening shall call and signal Dead ball to prevent any further action by the fielding side and shall recall the batsman.
8. Withdrawal of an appeal
The captain of the fielding side may withdraw an appeal only if he obtains the consent of the umpire within whose jurisdiction the appeal falls. He must do so before the outgoing batsman has left the field of play. If such consent is given, the umpire concerned shall, if applicable, revoke his decision and recall the batsman.
9. Umpire’s decision
An umpire may alter his decision provided that such alteration is made promptly. This apart, an umpire’s decision, once made, is final.

I remember as a YOUTH I was bowling in some cricket competition or other. I bowled a slightly short, slow ball (i.e. an awful delivery) and the batsman pulled it. As he did, I was CERTAIN I heard two sounds on the willow.
As I wandered back past the umpire for my next delivery, I said to him; "You know, I think he hit it twice...". The umpire replied: "He did, if you'd appealed I would've given him out."
The umpire would have been wrong.
Law 34 "The striker is out Hit the ball twice if, while the ball is in play, it strikes any part of his person or is struck by his bat and, before the ball has been touched by a fielder, he wilfully strikes it again with his bat"
Bit like arguing about whether a handball is deliberate or not. I think you could argue in both cases of the ball hitting the bat that he was wilfully trying to hit the ball.
