Is there a way to select Windows Phone 8.0 Project instead of 8.1 in Visual Studio 2013 when I want to create a Windows Phone Hub or Windows Phone Empty template?
From the menu on the screenshot, select Blank App (Windows Phone Silverlight), next you will be shown a dialog to choose 8.1 or 8.0.

I have windows phone 8.1 XAML project on visual studio 2015 (update 3) after install Microsoft Advertising SDK for Windows Phone from this URL
I can't found in Extensions Microsoft Advertising SDK for Windows Phone 8.1 (XAML). Any idea why?
It is correct if you install Microsoft Advertising SDK for Windows Phone from this URL. In visual studio Windows Phone 8.1 XAML project：
If your project targets Any CPU, update your project to use an architecture-specific build output (for example, x86).
From the Solution Explorer window, right click References, and select Add Reference…
For a Windows Phone 8.1 project: Expand Windows Phone 8.1, click Extensions, and then select the check box next to Ad Mediator SDK for Windows Phone 8.1 XAML.
Modify the XAML for the page where you are embedding advertising to include the Microsoft.Advertising.WinRT.UI namespace.
More details, please see Add Microsoft Advertising SDK
How do you make a Windows Phone 8.0 application with Visual Studio 2013?
Windows Phone 8.0 Project Template in VS2013.4
I've followed the above but when I hit next it automatically makes a 8.1 project. It prompted me once on if I wanted 8.0 or 8.1, but that prompt no longer appears.
EDIT: Creating a Blank App (Windows Phone) only creates an 8.1 app. Creating a Blank App (Windows Phone Silverlight) gives an option of 8.0 and 8.1.
What's going on?
I haven't tried this but I think you need to install the sdk for Windows 8 separately. You can side by side install multiple OS versions in your Visual Studio to have a look that how your app would respond in windows 8 environment.
You then also need the respective emulator image too.
After some googling i have found a link, I personally haven't tried this ever but I hope this would be useful.

This link contains the SDK for Windows 8 and 7.5 along with their respective emulator images.
I want to develop windows phone 8 app but I installed update 2 of visual studio 2013 which only develop windows phone 8.1 app.Is there any way to do so?
You can definitely still create Windows Phone 8.0 projects with Visual Studio 2013.
When looking at the new project templates you want to look at Visual C#->Store Apps->Windows Phone Apps. From there scroll to the bottom, you want to choose from the Windows Phone Silverlight App templates. Choose any of them and you'll be prompted to target 8.0 or 8.1. Choose 8.0 and you should be good to go.

Yes you can. Just select Blank App (Windows Phone Silverlight) instead of Blank App (Windows Phone) and select the target windows phone OS version to 8.0. You're done. Refer the below image for more information.
I installed the last version of visual studio to target windows phone 8.1 OS. After the installation I figured out that the 8.1 OS was not yet released and I couldn't deploy my application on my device. Can I target the windows phone 8.0 version when building the application?
Yes you can. Go to your project properties and there on your application tab, you can select the target OS.
Select This Project Template & It will prompt you to select your targeting Windows Phone OS
But Once you have targeted 8.1 you can't deploy on a 8.0 device or emulator.
