is it best to use individual emulators or use an all in one like retroarch?

For most situations, Retroarch will be fine so just keep using that. For some systems however, it may be better to stick to a standalone emulator.

It's down to personal preference for most people.

is the ps2 emulator the only emulator to use a bios dump?

There are many emulators that require a bios dump from a console to run.

Quick examples:

WinUAE (amiga)
Majority of Playstation 1 emulators
PCSX2 (ps2)
PC-Engine emulators
Sega CD

Just run the emulator, if it needs a bios it will ask you to select/configure it.

Also quick note, some emulators may ask for a bios optionally. Meaning, they will run without one but for better compatibility you can use it. Can't remember of one right now but they do exist.
