yes, as ordered by the court
You can't demand it. But you can request it from the court.
You cannot receive child support from your spouse unless there is a court order to that effect. Generally, there must be a legal separation in order for the court to get involved in child support issues. Legal separation is not available in every jurisdiction. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in family law in your jurisdiction who can review your situation and explain your legal rights and options.
Usually a change can be made not only to a divorce (child support amount) but also to a legal separation. The change has to be plausible.
Yes, as part of a legal separation.
If there is a legal separation agreement that granted support then the obligated spouse must continue to obey the order or file a petition to have said order amended or revoked. If there is no legal separation agreement simply that the couple agreed on a mutual separation, the spouse is not obligated to render support of any sort until either a legal separation with division of property or a divorce is granted. Both parents are, however, legally obligated to support minor children whether or not a child support order is in affect.

Legal separation is to the same thing as divorce and is not always a prerequisite to a obtaining a dissolution of marriage (i.e. divorce). Although many of the issues (such as alimony, child support, etc) that would traditionally be dealt with in a divorce were done in your legal separation, you still need to go through the divorce process, starting with filing for divorce. At no point, no matter how long you have been separated, will a legal separation turn into a divorce.

no
The persons in custody of the child must file for legal guardianship and request the court modify the child support order. The person needs legal standing to receive child support.
Some states allow a "legal separation" instead of or before a divorce, which could include alimony and/or child support. In all states, I believe, you can file for divorce and ask for temporary child support and/or alimony pending the divorce. Check with a lawyer in your state.
If you are the child's father then you really have little legal support to not support your child. Your child is legally entitled to your financial support.
