With number bars and calculated value is it possible to see how times the ask size was dominant and how many times the bid size was dominant in a bar. Eg. in a bar with 10 price levels, of which 5 times it occurs that the dominant ask side was dominant and 3 times the bid size was dominant then the Ask counter is 5, the Bid counter is 3 and the delta is 2.

There is no support for counting the dominant side and the changes to this, while a bar is building.

Or is it possible to have two different background colors at the same price level, eg ask size of a price is dominant, right background is green, bid size of same price level is dominant left background is red.

This can be done using the Numbers Bars study and setting the Numbers Bars Background Type to Background on Dominant Side. You would then want to use a Background Coloring Method of Dominant Side AskVol BidVol Percentage. Refer to the following:
