Looks like it. They're pretty "long".

No, they are regular single-seater Hornets. They still have not decided whether or not they are going to switch to Super Hornets.
The AC are actually older planes- when they get enough hours to be G-limited, they give them to the Blues for airshow work (which is a lot less demanding on the airframes).
