Yes.

Yes.  You can also configure it to launch kernels from other
Mathematica installations on the same computer.  Under the Kernel
Settings tab in the web interface, change the path in KernelCommand to
another installation, e.g. a Mathematica 7.0.0 installation.

We recommend you use 7.0.1 for the master kernel, but you can also use
7.0.0 for that.  On the server side, Lightweight Grid Manager will
happily launch kernels from 6.0, 7.0.0, or 7.0.1.
