SOAPServer Service uses a parent fragment in the response message. The parent fragment can contain several fragments.
The question if we can construct a response message that holds two or more "parent" fragments.
For example, the following response is contained in a parent fragment called HeartBeatRes.

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<soapenv:Body>
<HeartBeatResponse xmlns="dias:online:DiasOnlineMS.wsdl">
<ns1:HeartBeatRes xmlns:ns1="http://soap.service.dias_server.com">
<ns1:msgHdr>
<ns1:sndgInst>DIAS</ns1:sndgInst>
<ns1:rcvgInst>90755</ns1:rcvgInst>
<ns1:srvcId>DTM</ns1:srvcId>
<ns1:env>T</ns1:env>
<ns1:creDtTm>2016-12-14T13:09:38</ns1:creDtTm>
</ns1:msgHdr>
<ns1:ack>
<ns1:rslt>OK</ns1:rslt>
<ns1:errCd>0</ns1:errCd>
<ns1:errMsg>No Errors</ns1:errMsg>
</ns1:ack>
</ns1:HeartBeatRes>
</HeartBeatResponse>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Is it possible to modify the response by omitting the parent fragment?

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<soapenv:Body>
<HeartBeatResponse xmlns="dias:online:DiasOnlineMS.wsdl">
<ns1:msgHdr>
<ns1:sndgInst>DIAS</ns1:sndgInst>
<ns1:rcvgInst>90755</ns1:rcvgInst>
<ns1:srvcId>DTM</ns1:srvcId>
<ns1:env>T</ns1:env>
<ns1:creDtTm>2016-12-14T13:09:38</ns1:creDtTm>
</ns1:msgHdr>
<ns1:ack>
<ns1:rslt>OK</ns1:rslt>
<ns1:errCd>0</ns1:errCd>
<ns1:errMsg>No Errors</ns1:errMsg>
</ns1:ack>
</HeartBeatResponse>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Moreover, can we somehow declare the inbound parameter of the SOAPServer Service as both inbound and outbound, as this is done in SOAPAgent Service?

SOAPAgent example, SOAPServer example

Is it possible to instruct the MessageHeader in the Inbound Parameter to be both Inbound & Outbound “ = “

Thanks in advance for your answers.

The SOAP server service does not support In/Out parameters.
You will need to create the SOAP XML using the XML binding wizard and one of the XML HTTP services.
