No, it doesn't strictly require NatServer option, though it is
recommended to set NatServer and a small NatTimer value, so that ATA
keeps NAT binding alive. Alternatively, you can get the same effect by
setting small registration interval, but this will put slightly higher
load on a registrar.

Yes, it is able to change IP address in both signalling and media.
