Depends on the PSU. Many modern PSUs can accept a range of input voltages e.g. 100v-240v. We'd need to know the exact model of the PSU to make sure. It should have a sticker. Take a look at it and/or post a picture of it, if you're unsure what all of it means.

Yes. The operating voltages inside a computer are standardized, they are not US/Japan specific.
