Hi!
All that you ask for is, of course, possible. Only it would ask for
some additional installation scripts, which will depend a lot on the
OS to which it will install.
If you will be selling your product, you will also require MySQL
licence.
Regarding embedded server, it works with C , but it could be made
linkable in java application, with some additonal work.
