sort of. NAT is address translation. NAPT is address/port translation.
masquerading is a particular form of NAPT where everything is translated
into (usually) a single ip address. if you are masquerading to multiple
ip addresses (possible but requires the iproute2 package), then that's
a more general form of NAPT. but masqueading isn't NAT which usually means
a simple 1:1 mapping between addresses (ports are irrelevant in NAT).

not true. this is one of several ipchains examples from the ip masq howto:
/sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -i eth0 -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j MASQ
