Sure. If you've already seen the anime, then you got it all covered since the basic plot poins are all the same. If you're only familiarized with the movies, then I think you'll need to check the ToP first. Or at least know Goku and Vegeta got UI and SSJBE, but Goku doesn't know how to use UI.

If you have already seen the Anime, Yes.

The previous Manga arcs are pretty much just shorter and rushed versions of the correspondent Anime arcs, you're not losing anything of value if you've already watched the Anime.

You can just start with the Moro arc but honestly the manga is such a quick read and the previous arcs differ a lot from the anime so you may want to start from rhe beginning or you may be confused regarding some callbacks, characterization and form mechanics. But if you don't care for the details and just want to get the main story, then go ahead.
