Usually. Some furnaces come in shorter cabinets, and a horizontal model can lie on its side or hang from the joists where headroom is tight. The bigger question is venting: a high-efficiency furnace needs a plastic vent route to an outside wall or the roof, while the old chimney may still have to serve the water heater. We measure and plan the vent before picking a model.

Yes. A single ductless head handles a porch, sunroom or upstairs bedroom on its own controls, with a small outdoor unit and a line set run down the outside wall. Cold-climate models keep heating well below zero, though their output drops as it gets colder, so we size the unit to that room's actual heat loss, not just its square footage.

It can be, but it needs checking. Old masonry chimneys may be unlined or have cracked clay tiles, and a cold chimney drafts poorly. We test draft and carbon monoxide at the furnace and water heater and look at the chimney's condition. If we replace the furnace with a 90%+ model vented in PVC, the water heater may be left alone in the chimney and need a liner or its own vent.

If the attic and knee walls are thin, yes. Air-sealing and insulating first lowers the heat loss, and the load calculation for the new furnace should reflect the house after that work, not before. That can mean a smaller furnace with longer, quieter cycles. CenterPoint Energy and Xcel Energy both run insulation and air sealing programs, so check what applies before you schedule either job.
