He could do that, but it wont handle as good. Not that most riders are capable of noticing such a small change, but it does make a difference.

I would also go with +3 and 4/1 offset front wheels. If you are going to be spending money, you might as well get the better set up. The cost might possibly be more for +3 vs. +2 a-arms, but I doubt it will be much (might not be any difference). The 4/1 offset will give less feedback and handles better.

Yes, definitely stick with a 4-1 offset. Even if you go with +2 you should use 4-1.
