The answer to both of your questions is yes. You should be able to buy sim card and topup as needed. And, yes. You just put the sim card in the phone. As long as the 6300 has the 900/1800 6300 bands used in Europe.

Does anyone know if it's possible to get sim cards that have more money/time/data on them so that any unused portion of what's on the sim, he can give it to his sister who lives in Austria when he leaves. We're not going to any other countries.
Also, do I just get the sim card, stick it in the phone and it's ready to go?
