Yes.

No. template() is a Puppet function, and like all Puppet functions,
it is evaluated by the Puppetmaster. It therefore does not sync the
erb file with clients, and it does not have any access to the client
system. Your custom resource may sync the resulting value, however,
without regard to how the value was generated.
