Seize the FSMO Roles from a disconnected Domain Controllers

I have 2 DCs in 2 different sites one DC is Schema+Domain Naming Master, the other DC has the 3 remaining roles( I believe I need 2 DCs at least in each site though).
for now my questions are:

1- if a DC that holds any of the FSMO roles crashes + the network connection goes down, can I still seize the roles from the other DC that is in another site ?
2-can a site still work if the DC in that site has no FSMO roles at all, and completely Disconnected from the other site?

Thanks
