I think questions (1) and (2) are best answered in the docs:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/routine-vacuuming.html#AUTOVACUUM
Please have a read and let us know if you have further questions.

> 3 - on autovacuum is executed vacuum with FULL option or not?

No, by design autovacuum never invokes any blocking activity.

> 4 - if autovacuum is running and i do a reload config setting autovacuum off 
> this process will be down?

The launcher will be shut down, but any worker currently processing
tables will continue until finished with its tables.
