Answer 1

Try to use NVM to install node js and it helps to checkout different node versions in the same machine for different project.

Check this answer. I clearly listed the commands on how to install node js with NVM on linux.

Answer 2

This is not related to NodeJS's package in any way.

The real issue is stated:

The repository basically_all_your_repos does not have a Release file.

Your ppa entries are corrupted. Delete all ppa entries which throw errors and then run apt-get update. I'm guessing the installation fails at the beginning, when (sudo) apt-get update is issued. You can check out how to remove ppas here.
