I'm new in SPSS, I know how to do crosstabs. But, I don't know how to include in the crosstabs analysis the missing values. Is someway to do it?

Is it possible to use multiple crosstabs like 23 or 34 ? How i can get relationship between two variable through crosstabs. Is it possible to find more feature1 vs feature2 vs feature3 relation through crosstabs?

Always check the documentation at first, more often than not you'll find the answer in there.

You can use the subcommand MISSING=INCLUDE which will include in the crosstab user defined missing values. If you have system missing values then only workaround is to temporarily recode them to a valid value.

TEMPORARY. 
RECODE V1 V2 (SYSMIS=-99).
CROSSTABS V1 BY V2.

The TEMPORARY command, as the name suggest, will temporarily recode the data by the transformations that proceed it until a procedure is run, in this case CROSSTABS. The data after the CROSSTABS is run would not have any of the transformations specified and so would be in its previous/original state.
