only if you divorce and he/she gets awarded the entire account in a QDRO. Even then your spouse will only get the balance in the plan and can't add new contributions.

No. You can name your spouse as beneficiary, but such accounts are not transferable.

You can name her as a beneficiary in case you die but you can not transfer the account to her name as far as I know.
