None of the above is likely relevant.

Then they are going to NEED to make their DNS zone dynamic which
is going to be VERY unpleasant and unpalatable to them (me too.)
Then you are going to create a private zone that is NOT within their
tree.
Assuming you AD deployment is "approved" you have a POLITICAL
problem that might need to be resolved by "your management" talking
to "their management".
If you deployment is approved they are likely being "unreasonable",
perhaps even "obstructionist" in refusing to DELEGATE to your
zone.

You can, but it won't really be part of their "tree" or findable from "their
namespace".
If you mean seemlessly, then "No, you cannot."

This is NOT an issue IF the parent zone will delegate.
Delegation is the RIGHT way.

It can be made to work, the same as a private zone/domain, can also
resolve the Internet -- they are just making it hard on your for no apparent
reason.
