To check Metro coverage go to http://www.metropcs.com/coverage/ or call 1.888.8metro8. Then yes activate and then flash the custom ROM. After that you will need to set-up MMS/WAP. There are cabs for MMS/WAP and carrier cabs. that you may need to use.
Also check this out for Metro http://www.metropcs.com/metroflash/

A carrier cab is an easy way to set data provisioning /internet access for the carrier you are using for service by installing 1 self installing cab file. In your case for metro.
Here is a nice guide for flashing the Vogue to metro on howard forums:

Seems like a good guide. I would read it through a few times to absorb everything.

Most likely yes. But to make sure you should consult MetroPCS.
