As I am sure you have read, multi-instance can be a painful road, but YES it is possible to do both of the above.
Each instance will just need to make sure to have it's own product codes and upgrade codes. Then they can be upgraded or uninstalled independently of any other instance on the system. Also non-file components that are multi-instance do not work correctly in wix 3.5 AFAIK, b/c it is missing the 'MultiInstance' attribute on the 'Component' elements. There may be workarounds though.
