If the chicken is cooked with the marinade, then yes you can use it as a sauce.

Probably not.
You will need to cook down the yogurt based marinade to remove risk of contamination and I'm not certain how well the marinade will hold when cooked.
I'd try it.
If it fails, you could just make a fresh batch of "marinade" and use it as a sauce.
