Rich, 

Static, certainly.  After all, waddaya think www.netbsd.org runs?  

Dynamic, kinda sorta.  I wouldn't recommend it to a guy who keeps ip
addresses in his hip pocket.  But there are (some free) services out
there that will map your address into their domain, and there are ways
to update their DNS automatically when your dynamic ip address
changes.

No, not if "independently " means "do something magical without my
ISP's help or knowledge to attach  my old addresses to the internet
via their service".  Your ISP has to route your addresses.  

HTH.
