General note: your DNS provider can be different from your registrar, even though most registrars are also providers, and you can be your own DNS provider. The registrar is who gets the domain name under your control, and the provider is who hosts the nameserver with your DNS records on it.

Yes, and you can be your own DNS provider only for the challenges, everything else can stay at your original DNS provider.
