You will first have to generate a deformation by selecting the
symmetrical image as the target and the appropriate non-symmetrical
image as the source image. This will then generate a deformation field
which you can then apply to your atlas.

No. If you search the archive for messages from Alexander Hammers, you
will find some more information on what the pros and cons are for using
single-subject versus group-based atlases.
Hope this helps,
Marko
