"This is all my fault."  Does it mean "This is only my fault." and "This is completely my fault."?

Yes, that´s right... And you can use it with other possessive adjectives as well: "it´s all YOUR fault!", "it´s all HIS fault", etc.

It has two meanings:

This is completely my fault.
and
All of this is my fault.

Answer

"This is all my fault." - this means " "This is completely my fault " . A person who accepts the fault which caused only because of him.

Answer

Previous answer was correct; and I add that people sometimes say this in a non-literal way -- they may want attention or just say it because they feel really bad about what happened.  It is a way to say sometimes, "I will bear all the guilt."
