Yes, assuming the fare class allows you to hold the itinerary and you have wenough time to ticket. I would never try this for a flight in less than 2 weeks. Also remember that you're effectively sending cash through the mail - if it gets lost, you have no recourse.

They will tell you, but you will probably need to make sure it's postmarked within 24 hours.

No.
