Yes.  You'll have problems though as NT4 insists on putting its boot loader on
the primary partition, which must be either FAT16 or NTFS.  If the spare
partition is the first one, then you are fine.

Yes.

What you'll have to do is make a boot disk - just use KLILO (I don't know
anything about GRUB) and save the boot loader to the disk.  Then when you boot
into Linux again after installing NT you can use KLILO to put the boot loader
onto the MBR again.

A word of warning - NT4 is dumb when it comes to large drives, particular if
you have to use a BIOS patch to access it.  Just don't cry too much if NT4
nukes your Linux partitions.
