Yes, as long as its the right type (a few different types, even though they look identical, are incompatible with each other).

Needs specialist equipment to recode to car.

Yes Tech2, can be done with genuine versions of Vaux-com (like mine) although I know TB isn't keen on using them as there have been a few disasters ;)
