Sure it does! I’m rural and our phones/ISP went out last week.

I activated our Starlink roam (you can access the captive portal while service is disabled) & all the remote working neighbors came over and shared the connection. It worked great!

What do you mean? Can I just buy a dish, don't activate any subscription and just when necessary enable roam?
Rome has a 'Pause service' option https://www.starlink.com/service-plans

""Pause and un-pause service at any time. Billing is in one-month increments, allowing you to customize your service to your individual travel needs."

Yes you can indeed. The equipment is your property and there's no contract
