Yep you deifnately can by bus, not positive if you can by train or not
2 :
Greyhound has no stops in Alaska. (just searched) Currently prices start at $617 for a plane ticket on Alaska Airlines from SFO to Anchorage

Bus, yes, just not Greyhound. Alaska Direct Bus Line offers bus services between Anchorage and Whitehorse, Canada (travel time - 16 to 18 hours) and between Fairbanks and Whitehorse (journey time - 13 to 15 hours). From Whitehorse, Greyhound Canada offers connections to Vancouver, British Columbia (journey time - 40 hours 30 minutes). The total travel time from Alaska to the lower 48 States can take up to five days and involve a number of connections.

Check the price of taking Greyhound to Seattle, and then taking a ferry (boat) from Seattle to Alaska.
5 :
There is not any train service between Canada and Alaska. Fly, boat, or drive.

Tonalc is correct, Greyhound bus, San Francisco to Seattle $90, Seattle to Vancouver $28, Vancouver to Whitehorse $270, Then Alaska direct busline Whitehouse to Anchorage $230. It take 5 to 6 days to arrive there, it will extremly exhausted. Whitehouse to anchorage line only operates Wed and Sun. So the better and fast way is fly, I got there from SF to ANC for $422 round trip last week. I enjoy AK, glacier and wild animals.It is not that cold now, but many tourist sites is still close. Alaska is pretty expensive.The hotel I stayed was $69 now, will be $129 next month, and $199 June to Aug.
