You don't have to have one, it just makes it a little easier. As long as the drain is flush with the floor, you can drill into the concrete and us anchors to hold the toilet down. The down side is that they tend to corrode over time and become stuck in the concrete. If you ever have to remove the toilet, they can break and that makes putting the toilet back harder. You can just bolt a mounting ring to the floor and use regular toilet bolts to hold the toilet. These can be easily replaced if needed.

Yes. It is called a carrier fitting. These are only sold at Plumbing supply stores. I would not suggest trying to install it by yourself.
