Dig only contacts one server when using @server (note it might try
multiple addresses).  To resolve the target of a CNAME the server
needs to be configured to recurse or to have a local copy of the
CNAME target.  It is not a error for authoritative servers to not
return the data for the target of a CNAME as recursive servers will
make additional queries.

No, recursive servers will perform a second lookup to resolve
CNAME targets.
