If I understood correctly, the question is whether or not we can get estimates for individual slopes across time? If so, then yes, that's possible - but I'd have to run an analysis myself and look up how to do it exactly - I'll get back on this. > 2.

One of the nice things of the LME is that it can separate the cross- sectional effect of age (at baseline) and the longitudinal effect of aging (=effect of time). So the aging effect is already incorporated within the 'time since baseline' variable, which of course should also be present in the model. Since it is difficult to estimate and interpret effects that are very redundant (such as time vs age at each timepoint), it's better to just use age at baseline for the other regressor.
