Yes, of course you need something on the network to connect to the camera

Well maybe, it all depends on whether your current wireless CCTV cameras are IP based. Since you don't say which they are, there are IP based and then just plain wireless CCTV units which are not IP based. No one will be able to answer this.
Check the camera information it will tell you what wireless system is in use and then you can tell if you can connect directly.
If it is not "wifi ip" based you will have to get an interface of some sort to access the cameras. Many CCTV systems have these interfaces. Basically most of these are just a big DVR system which can be loaded on a server and then addressed by IP.

Probably not.
The wireless CCTV is likely using a simple FM transmission scheme to transmit the camera signal to a dedicated receiver. This is a completely different concept than a wireless network transferring data packets.

It depends whether the cctv are using ip packets to communicate. If so then yes.
