I haven’t done this myself, but I assume you can turn off the display in Desktop Mode. I assume somewhere in the “normal” Linux settings there will be the usual Turn Screen Off after … and Go To Sleep after … You could just set the screen to turn off after 5 mins, then set sleep to never and that should do it.

No.
Those features are part of the desktop environment, which doesn’t run at all in game mode.

I’d assume it won’t, you can always just test it out though. There might be some setting for those timeouts in the Steam-steamdeck settings.

In desktop mode there is a far easier way. Click the battery icon in the taskbar, then click “temporarily don’t sleep”. No need to change settings
