In general, what is the output voltage that an amplifier (not rail-to-rail output type) can provide,if it is supplied for example Vdd=+24V and Vee=-24V which is the maximum value I can get "for sure" from the output, can it reach +24V and -24V? in datasheets they always mention the minimum and the typical output voltage in some cases but never the maximum one.

You can feed both channels from the same mono signal to have both channels amplify the signal and drive the left and right channels of the output speakers or headphones. Alternately, you could just use one channel to have one channel produce output.
They do not list anything on the datasheet about the REF pin, although it clearly lacks the 'overvoltage protection' shown on the (other) input pins.
Yes, you should keep it within the supply rails, or at most a few hundred mV beyond the rails. Since you need to drive it with a low impedance it would be best to feed it with a buffer that is also powered by the same supplies.
That's for protection- for operation see the datasheet figures 3-6 and think of the supplies as being relative to REF. You need to prevent the internal nodes at the outputs of A1 and A2 from saturating as well as the output of A3, and to keep the inputs of A1, A2, A3 within their common mode range- so the region of proper operation is a different 3D volume (based on the voltages on the inputs and REF on each axis) for each pair of power supply voltages.

Firstly note that the opamp given has an unusually large supply voltage range, most opamps at +/-24V will only give out smoke.
Secondly. the spec you're looking for is in Table 6.5, page 5, conveniently labeled "Voltage Output". All figures in that table are for supply of +-/15V, and it guarantees an output of +/-11V (typically +/-12V) under the specified conditions.
So at +/-24V you could expect +/-20V or slightly better. (Whether it can still drive 600 ohms at these voltages is another matter, I wouldn't trust it to drive better than 1 kilohm thanks to power dissipation)
Most datasheets show the output voltage over a wider range of conditions, different load impedances, etc. but Burr-Brown (now TI) don't for this one.
