An engineer unit w. boats might still be able to build a bridge provided it is capable of doing so (it will say so when you rightclick on the units information box). But it cannot do this at the same time it is ferrying infantry using the boats.

Basically yes. The engineer really only has to be in the same place during the ferrying and not do anything else (I think it can Dig In though). It doesn´t have to do anything. The unit being ferried is the only one active.
