Yes, but ONLY for the THIS <work> element.

Yes.

Yes.

As stated in my prior post, with the current schema there is a problem
with the SECOND <work> element used with the non-default prefix of
osisIDs, when an osisRef, from within the same document, is made using
the SECOND <work> element.  It would seem that the reference should be a
reference using all of the meta-data of the THIS <work> element, only
that the identifier is relative to the reference system of the SECOND
<work> element.
