Question one - YES! Absolutely. There is, and always has been. Some folks have found ways around those rules, and others just choose to ignore them. An answer to question two depends upon two factors: a) the "networking" ability (knowledge and relationships with short sources) and relative size of the brokerage-in-question's Stock Loan and Borrow Dept., as well as b) the size of the float of the issue in question.
