Inventor 5.0 help needed

Can I take an assembly (or collection of assemblies in an assembly) and sketch on it?

I have a partial model of the robot and want to sketch adaptively another subsystem. Right now, all I know how to do is make parts (like angle or tubes of a certain length) and assemble them.

Another question: how does one make an angle or tube adaptive so it stretches/shortens as needed to fit in a space? At the moment I have to extrude a certain distance and then use the part as is, maybe triming after using.
