Answer 1

Finally, I got the answer to this question. Answer

JHtmlSidebar::addEntry('<span class="dashboard-submenuicon"></span>'.
            JText::_('Dashboard'),
            'index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=dashboard',
            $vName == 'dashboard'
        );

We can write css code, for example

.dashboard-submenuicon{
           background-image:url('your_image_url');
            background-repeat: no-repeat;
            display: inline-block;
            height: 22px;
            vertical-align: middle;
            width: 22px;
            margin-right:5px;

}
