Correct.

Yes, AFAIK.  There may also be a way for one
Emacs process to interact with another, but
someone else will need to speak to that. Even
then, I doubt you can communicate things like
buffers between processes - you would need to
serialize/marshall whatever info you wanted
to send to the other process, which amounts
to the same thing as saving serialized data
to disk.

It's not clear what you really need or want
to do.  "The details" is vague.  Most info
about a buffer that would be relevant in 
general can be saved to disk and restored.
