Of course. /etc/rc.conf is "executed", in the normal way it
is used it simply associates values to variables. If you
would put
echo "Get me beer!"
into /etc/rc.conf, you would see this message.
So what you did: You executed
kldload snd_hda="YES"
which you could also have tried the same command at the
command line (sh).

Of course not. You could put
kldload snd_hda.ko
into /etc/rc.conf, but that isn't the way such things are done.

Which would not work if the driver was actually compiled int
the kernel. Example: I have compiled snd_cmi and sound into
my kernel. So my kldstat looks like this:
# kldstat
Id Refs Address Size Name
1 3 0xc0400000 6959cc kernel
2 1 0xc0a96000 683b4 acpi.ko
If I now try to load the snd_cmi kernel module, this happens:
# kldload snd_cmi.ko
kldload: can't load snd_cmi.ko: File exists
This indicates that the driver is already present. It has been
preloaded by the kernel (it is IN the kernel), so it cannot
be loaded by kldload.
So if you ARE able to kldload the module, it hasn't been in
the kernel (or at least not loaded). Maybe you can check your
hints file for some strange entries?

Good luck.
