1. Both are correct.
2. Yes, they are.^^/
"-고말고(요)" is used to confirm what somebody has said or strongly agree with somebody's opinion while "-고 말고(with space between 고 and 말고)" can be used to mean "whether...or not", and often used in a situation where somebody needs to make a decision.
e.g.
A : 그 사람은 오나요? (Is he coming?)
B : 물론이죠, 오고말고요.(definitely, he's coming)
As for "-고 말고"
오고 말고는 너한테 달려있다 = It's up to you whether you come or not.
