Three grammar questions

I don't have it in me to let them die off either.


1. Is 'it' used to anticipate something which appears later in the same sentence? i.e., it = to let them die off either.

2. Might I paraphrase it into this? ? I don't have to let them die off either in me.

3. Could I change "it" into "on"? i.e., I don't have it on me to let them die off either.
