Depending on the belt, maybe; kind of depends on exactly which one to which you're referring.
Typically the bolt in the center of the pulley fastens it; it must be loose before going after the tensioning bolt.

Correct.
Unless the idler pulley bearing is making noise, it doesn't need to be replaced. You also can track down a bearing for $10 instead of paying lots more bucks for an entire assembly.

If they are adjusted properly they won't require any re-tensioning.
