Probably not, unless the content of the Word doc originates in Frame.

Well, in Frame, you can select the specific page to import.  I'm
not sure if Word affords the same ability.  You could try making
a Frame doc that looks as you want, then export to Word, but I
suspect your PDF images would all be of page 1 in Word.

Only until the pagination changes.  ;-)

Possibly.  Or just do the whole job in Frame and forget Word.  ;-)
