kathy_ann,
Probably no to all.
The reason I say probably is you could have a micro-climate that allows them to survive there.
Most edible bananas are at least a Zone 8.
I know I'll get hammered on this one.
There are exceptions but usually extra-ordinary measures are taken.

Here's a hardiness chart.
