Yes.

Yes, see below.

Yes, you can use one of the packages tftpd, aftpd or tftpd-hpa 
(recommended). The LTSP .deb packages depend or suggest the needed packages 
like tftpd, {x,k,g}dm etc. I suggest putting

deb http://termserv.berlios.de/debian stable main non-free

in /etc/apt/sources.list and then install with apt-get.

After installation, you can do

cd /opt/ltsp/templates/
./ltsp-initialize

to set up all needed services.

The documentation is very good, if you have any questions after reading it, 
ask here or on the IRC channel.
