Yes - That is the common case here. Run the open-source Community Edition on fortrabbit and skip the few hundred per month a managed Shopware plan can cost. Bring the code; fortrabbit provides the hosting.
#It depends - Shopware is resource-hungry, so scale the PHP component and give MySQL headroom. Add cron jobs for the message queue and scheduled tasks, and scale the components up as catalog and traffic grow.
#Git push - Manage the project with Composer and deploy with `git push`; the build runs Composer, and the Shopware console commands and migrations run over SSH. Media and generated files live in persistent storage so they survive deploys.
#Yes - Start a free trial — seven days, no credit card — and deploy a real Shopware Community Edition store first.
#MySQL - Add a MySQL component for the shop. Give it headroom, since a Shopware catalog and order history are demanding on the database.
