Yes, with certain limitations... out of the box, SME handles multiple domains as follows...
Mail to user@domain1, user@domain2 [...] goes to the account "user". There is no built in support for mail sent to the same user name on different domains to be sent to different local accounts.
I believe there is a contributed HOWTO that explains how to work around this limitation.

Yes. Out of the box, Apache supports multiple virtual domains. This *requires* browsers accessing any domain other than the default to use HTTP 1.1, and also rules out secure HTTP to any of the "secondary" domains. An attempt to access a web site via IP address yeilds the default site.

I've heard that this has been done, but Mitel explicitly discourages this. Search the forums for more information.

Yes... This is the default behaviour. (in fact AFAIK it can't be done any other way)
