Can a lyric coloratura soprano sing martern aller arten if they have the ability to sustain the more dramatic portions of the aria?
I would say definitely, especially if they are a fuller lyric coloratura. Have you watched on youtube Diana Damrau's interpretation? It's incredible, and she's truly a full lyric coloratura, not a dramatic coloratura (which makes it kind of funny that she's probably the best Queen of the Night and Constanze there's been, with them both being dramatic coloratura parts). Now a lighter lyric coloratura could sing it, supposedly Natalie Dessay sang it years ago, but it wouldn't have the same effect because, as you are aware, it's harder for them to sustain more dramatic sections.

The early to mid 19th century in Italy was the height of popularity for bel canto (beautiful singing) operas by such composers as Mozart, Bellini, Donizetti and Rossini. The term has become most identified with sopranos, who are then called coloratura sopranos.

What do you call the voice higher than the soprano?
The voice higher than the soprano is typically referred to as the "soprano II" or "coloratura soprano," which encompasses a range of very high vocal abilities. In some contexts, particularly within choral music, the term "soprano" can also refer to subcategories like "mezzo-soprano" for lower female voices. However, in general, the coloratura soprano is recognized for its exceptional range and agility.
