You can I think get simple short run molds made for under $5k. Molds made out of CNC milled aluminum instead of hard steel.

Possible, depending on how simple the molds are. Typically, this is easier if you have a MUD unit (Master Unit Die) where you can just mill inserts, rather than the whole injection mold (ejection, injection, clamp plates, etc...)
