Yes, of course it does it synchronises the local copy with the server i.e. they are in the same state, delete an email from the client and it gets deleted on the server and vice versa.

You can't, other than exporting your email or saving a copy in a local folder. The whole point of an email client is to keep the local copy and the mailbox in sync.

You can create a backup by exporting the email (look on the Preferences tab) or create a local folder and copy them into that, local folders are not synchronised with your server.
