1) I would bet "No". The machine is still the same machine. But if you installed the BOINC software separately for each user, being sure to keep them in DIFFERENT directories, then I suppose each one would attempt to get a new ComputerId. So maybe it would do that. Try it and see. :)

Yes, but you must grant all of your users fill access to the BOINC directory. At that point, they will be running the same computer.
