Yes.

Yes, this too.

Btw, what do you refer to by virtual directories?

Squid-3 in reverse proxy mode can accept http/https requests (with SSL
termination), then do any decision on where this should be forwarded and
forwarded requests can use https/http per your decisions on how it should
be forwarded. With the help of redirectors you can also rewrite the
URL-path while the URL is forwarded, but as long as you do not need to
rewrute the URL-path (what is after the host name) redirectors is not
needed.
