The rule book thingy (pg 66) says "the shadowrunning player chooses
how to divide damage between Runners, Drones and Spirits present on
the run..." So I'd say you have no say on the matter and should
probably count on your runner taking it in the patootey when damage
time comes.

I'd say you already committed that runner to the Shadowrun, so Red
Widow stays on your opponents side of the fence for the fight.

Interesting use of cards, but in theory I guess it could be pulled off.
