The project created by 'yo office' is a simple task pane for an individual item. You can looks at the documentation at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/outlook/item-multi-select to see how to change it to support multi select. Note that multi select support is only in preview on Windows right now. More work is needed in order to finish it and extend it to Mac.

Is there any way then I can get list of emails on the task pane?

The office.js API provides access to the currently selected item and it properties.
