Short answer yes

Long answer yes, because the 10 speed cassette is designed to be the same width as a 9 speed.

IIRC 10sp road cassettes are marginally narrower than 9sp, so you need a thin spacer at the wheel end of the freehub. Are MTB 10sp cassettes the same?

If a spacer is required to fit the cassette it should come with it.

IIRC, no, partly because I guess they're designed with compatibility with existing wheels in mind, but I'm not 100% certain.

No spacers with 10 speed MTB cassettes, it'll go straight on.

That go for SRAM as well, given that SRAM MTB & road groups are purported to be cross compatible?
