Yes, I think so. I'm a little hazy on that bit, but looking at
include/quilt.mk, there is a snippet like:
if [ -s "$(1)/series" ]; then \
$(call filter_series,$(1)/series) | xargs -n1 \
$(PATCH) $(PKG_BUILD_DIR) "$(1)"; \
else \
$(PATCH) $(PKG_BUILD_DIR) "$(1)"; \
fi; \
where filter series is: sed -e s,\\\#.*,, $(1) | grep -E \[a-zA-Z0-9\]
and PATCH is a script that takes care of uncompressing and applying the
patches with patch -p1 -E -d {dir}
Look in include/quilt.mk, rules.mk and scripts/patch-kernel.sh for details

Not yet, I don't think - it pretty much assumes the patches are local.
