Yes Application Scoped vars are available to Custom tags. The application
scope that is used is the scope of the calling template .

Yes they are set for each request as request scope only lasts for the for
the length of the request , unlike application vars which are stored in
memory.
Try something like
<cfif not IsDefined("Application.IsInitialised")>
<!---set your app vars --->
<cfset Application.IsInitialised = 1>
</cfif>
