No.  But as long as the user submits all of the necessary data, and the 
data passes your validation checks, what does it matter where they 
submitted the data from?  You could check the Referer value, if one has 
been set, for a little more assurance that it was posted from your page, 
but relying on the accuracy (or presence!) of Referer should not be 
considered "secure" either.

If passing data securely from one page on your site to another is 
important, maybe SSL is what you need.

Yes, a POST request can be submitted without using a form.
