Your Answer for Question 1:
No, they can't. Instructions distinguished by op into R-type and I-type. In R-type, each instruction has different funct. In I-type, each instruction has different op. So instructions can't duplicate in machine code.

Your Answer for Question 2:
If address difference between Here and There is greater than 2^16-1, then branch is impossible. PC relative addressing can access instruction in only PC+-2^16-1.

we can be better by using jump instruction. It uses 26bits as address field. (branch uses 16bits.)
