Yes I believe so.

1. The voicemail app allows delivery to multiple destinations at once:

 - example :

exten => 100,1,VoiceMail(u101&102&103)

2. Create an e-mail alias/list and deliver the voicemail via e-mail to
that alias.

There is a user option forcegreetings:

forcegreetings = [yes|no]
        
        Sets whether the user will be forced to record a new greeting
        when logging in to the system for the first time. Default: no
        
        Example:
        
        forcegreetings = no 
        

Not sure about the forced change PIN, but it should be easy enough to
write a little command wrapper around it and prompt for PIN via the
dialplan.
