In principle yes; in practice you can expect to find full-featured drivers in all major languages, and anything higher-level that claims support for Mongo will also have support. Certainly even the most basic Mongo drivers will let you have things like collection columns.

Depends what kind of network, if any, is between the two endpoints. But the performance aspect is just illustrative of what a poor format for expressing machine-level queries it is.
