Yes, of course. just grind them up with the lawnmower.
Absolutely. Some people actually run them through a shredder to make them easier to use but that's not really necessary.
Here's a couple ways I've been using debris on our land.

Oak leaves are naturally acidic. Blend them with other compost if using in more neutral spots.
