I can't see why not.....

Sure.

I'd think that the mage could re-enter his body even if only a tiny
portion was able to be reached. The astral "form" really isn't. It
is a representation of the individual and does not neccesarily
conform to physical attributes.

As for the second part, I would assume that you can exit physical
space on either side of the ward if your body straddles it.
