To follow the conventional modular format, you should have the following
directory structure:
APP_DIR/
default/
controllers/
admin/
controllers/
(all controllers in this module should be prefixed with
'Admin_')

$controller->throwExceptions(true);
will turn off exception handling and throw them. However, the better way
is the error handler... more below.

Please read the section on the conventional modular directory structure:
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.controller.modular.html
as well as the MVC quick start and the ViewRenderer documentation:
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.controller.html#zend.controller.quickstart.go
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.controller.actionhelpers.html#zend.controller.actionhelpers.viewrenderer
Use the directory structure as shown above, and add a views subdirectory
at the same level as 'controllers', with a subdirectory for view
scripts. Each controller then has a subdirectory itself:
APP_DIR/
default/
controllers/
IndexController.php
ErrorController.php
views/
scripts/
index/
*.phtml
error/
error.phtml
helpers/
filters/

In your setup, yes; though I encourage you to use the now established
conventions.
Look at the ErrorHandler documentation for better examples of how to
handle application exceptions, and turn off throwExceptions():
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.controller.plugins.html#zend.controller.plugins.standard.errorhandler
