Yes! Just make sure not to dry the seeds. Keep some of the juices on them and plant them into some compost. They tend to not sprout when they’re dried

Regular should work fine as they are seedlings. Just try to add a bit of worm castings or bone meal to it to give them a little boost from the soil.

They make soil mixtures with compost! I’ve seen bags at Home Depot.
