You can point it to one host name that has two entries (using the same
hostname) with each entry having a different IP address. It will use Round
Robin to determine which IP to give a querying client.

No. Client-side aliases are one-to-one mappings.

Yes.

Don't use client-side aliases at all. Just create two "A" resource records
for the domain name concerned, with the two IP addresses.
