A:
Yes. You can read the values from those controls by using
var valueFromHtmlControl = Request.Form["Control-Identified"]

A:
If your "HTML button" is a <input type="submit" /> element, clicking it will indeed cause the <form> to be posted. However, it will not raise any Click events, since there is no Button object associated with the HTML button you have clicked.
In your Page_Load() method (or similar) you will be able to retrieve the posted values using the Request.Form collection. Example with text input has name="myField":
string postedVal = Request.Form["myField"];

Absolutely - this can lead to some unwanted effects, such as cross site request forgery, which is worth looking out for:
