Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

There should not be a problem with you doing this, but you should explain why to the assessor and try not to use them unless you need to, but don't hesitate to do so if you do.

I'm afraid there is no easy way to answer this, the criteria for PIP is different from DLA and the assessment process is significantly different. You need to go through the PIP Claim guide to see how your current limitations would score for each of the PIP activities.
