Is Skeletron a one-time boss?

No, Skeletron is not strictly a one-time boss in Terraria; after the initial defeat by cursing the Old Man, you can fight him repeatedly by killing the Clothier NPC at night while wearing the Clothier Voodoo Doll, which allows you to access the dungeon and its treasures as often as you like, though the first time unlocks the Clothier and dungeon entry.

Is there a time limit on Skeletron?

Also bear in mind that skeletron has a time limit. Unlike metroidvania. I'm not saying that, I'm just saying its plenty possible to beat skeletron with a musket and silver armor. It might not have the best fire-rate but the musket rounds are much more powerful, so it balances out.

Is Skeletron an optional boss?

Yes, Skeletron is technically optional in Terraria's immediate pre-Hardmode progression, but defeating him is crucial to unlock the Dungeon, which provides vital loot and NPCs (like the Mechanic) needed for later game progression, including the Lunatic Cultist and final bosses.
