    Yes.

    You can create a trigger "on all server" for events like create_database, drop_database then, you do whatever you want with the triggered event.

    Databases are attached by using CREATE DATABASE blah blah blah FOR ATTACH so it should at least catch database attach.

    I would suggest to test it, test both attaching/detaching via t-sql and the gui
