The first one is asking if a person has a father (living or dead).
The second one is asking if a person's father is still alive.
Better to use this for the second one:
Is your father still alive?

What about this one:Do you have Father?

No, that's not used at all.
Do you have a father?
Is your father alive?
Is your father still with you?
The only time you capitalize the "f" on "father" is when you are addressing your father or are referring to your specific father.
~~Father, would you go fishing with us?
(It's very formal, though, and most people usually say "Dad" or "Pop" or something less formal!)
~~I tried to convince Father to come to visit me last fall.
("Father" meaning my father.)
