If I install a port with a +universal variant on top of a clean

I think it should, yes.
This goes for any variant you select, in fact, so long as the
dependent ports provide that variant.
If one or more dependents do not support the +universal variant,
will there be a warning or error message produced?
Well, those dependent ports will just be built without universal
support. (This is the same for all variants and all ports: if you ask
for a variant that does not exist, no error is produced; the port is
simply built without that nonexistent variant.)
If the port you are ultimately trying to build does depend on a
universal version of that dependent port which has no universal
support, then you will likely get errors at that point.
