    Yes you can import just one table (or selection of tables) from the full export.

    Example taken from quick google importing tables dept and emp from the SCOTT schema

    imp SYSTEM/password FIlE=dba.dmp FROMUSER=scott TABLES=(dept,emp)

    Yes.
    You can do a fromuser/touser import specifyng desired tables.
    Be sure target table is empty.
    Be sure to include parameter ignore=y
    You may also want to check if there are referential integrity constraints affecting target table
