Yes.

No.

Because entries in the directory name lookup cache require the inode for
the inode referred to by the entry to hang around.  If the system really
needs an inode table slot, it will purge DNLC entries until it either gets
one or runs out of entries to purge, at which point it has *really* run
out of inodes and complains.
