Yes. It is a measure of the amount of alcohol in your blood regardless of where in the body it was taken from - should be uniform.

The blood levels will be the same throughout the body with the exception of oxygen/carbon dioxide content from veins versus arteries or with finger stick blood collection which will contain more tissue fluid reducing the hematocrit just slightly.

Yes, but the level will test higher since you have to wait a while after getting arrested to have your blood drawn.
