Basically speaking, everything you see on your screen is a lie. None of it is real-time on your screen (except for maybe turning your camera angle, which is not negotiated by the server).
Um no, because if there's a delay between your jump gets processed by the server, you'd not be able to reliably jump up across elevation, because there's a chance the server isn't aware you're 'jumping' yet and then you'd get bounced back because the server will decide you're not really jumping and thus not having enough altitude to clear the elevation. Even as laggy as this game is, I've never had a case where I tried to jump up elevation in a valid location and get bounced back by magic.
