Maybe in his Sixth World they do...

That's never explained anywhere, I think.

If ordered to, sure.

It'll much more likely lose power, or Force, from doing so -- SRII page
143 has the rules for spirit combat, and if they directly oppose each
other, they both roll Force dice and the loser's Force is reduced.

The only reasons I can think of are because someone orders the spirit to,
or because (if it's a free spirit) it likes to attack magical items.
