In theory yes, but remember Workbench will use some of your chip RAM, which means if a game requires 2MB of chip RAM then you will have to boot without Workbench for the game to run.

Yes, that's correct. But the more fast RAM you have, the less you have to load in to chip RAM. There are, for example, tools which allow icons and graphics on Workbench to be loaded in to fast RAM instead of chip RAM, which will give you more chip RAM for games.

You can do all of those things with 4MB, but more will be better.
