No. You'll have to use Calibre Editor for final edits. Make sure to install the Calibre epubcheck plugin and run it before and after your edits. However, Calibre might add its own set of custom metadata entries, unless you disable the following option:
Edit > Preferences > Integration with Calibre > Update metadata ...

You can't suppress this metadata entry, which is useful when tracking down version specific bugs.

KevinH has indicated that future versions
might have an option to suppress the automatic generation of NCX files, however, you might want to keep the NCX file for backwards compatibility with epub2 apps.

If you use separate files, they'll usually load faster. Also some older epub apps have problems with files larger than 300-400KB.
As for Kobo-specific questions, you'll have to ask them in the Kobo forum.
