Maybe. The Windows 2000 DNS Server has the option to accept only secure
updates from client systems (for example, members of a Windows 2000 Active
Directory domain) or non-secure updates from any client. If you're not in
an AD domain you would want to set your clients up to update their records
in DNS and let DNS allow insecure updates.
If you're using some other DNS solution then I have no clue.

No, DNS works with or without Active Directory, but for secure DNS updates
you must run Active Directory. You can turn off the secure updates feature
in the DNS server, then set all clients to update their records in DNS and
they will do so.

Windows 2000 and XP will both update a DNS server if told to - you'll find
this option by opening up Network properties in the Control Panel,
right-clicking your network adapter and selecting Properties, double-click
the TCP/IP protocol to open it, then click the Advanced button at the bottom
of that page. From there you'll find the DNS Server settings.

DDNS requires the use of a DHCP server to handle the dynamic updates.
Otherwise you're talking about simple DNS and DNS registration, which Win2K
can handle without adding DHCP or DDNS.
Here's a little more background on DDNS and DNS in Windows 2000:

Actually, that's not necessarily entirely true. For example, Exchange 2000
and 2003 REQUIRE WINS.
837391 - Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange 2000 Server require NetBIOS name
resolution for full functionality:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=837391
There maybe other services and application that require it as well. AD
doesn't but that doesn't stop other apps from querying AD using NetBIOS, so
one would carefully need to inventory their software and their requirements
and possibly contact the vendors just in case there are any questions before
eliminating WINS or NetBIOS.
Keep in mind, WINS is designed for NetBIOS resolution in an enterprise
environment (meaning there are multiple subnets) since NetBIOS resolution
does not cross routers by default (nor would I want to enable that feature
anyway).

NO. That is a NOT a DNS function.
That function is based on the Browser service, which relies on NetBIOS,
which relies on WINS if going across subnets (across routers).
If you want My Network Places functionality across your subnets, Believe me,
