The answers to your questions are both yes. However, I would HIGHLY recommend going to Ryzen or waiting for Ryzen v2 rather than staying on the FX series. What exactly would you be planning on doing (or what do you do with your system)? Since you are already buying a new motherboard, I would definitely go to something like a B350 chipset and pair it with even a Ryzen 3, which will be leaps and bounds ahead of the FX 8350. And won't cost you a whole lot more.

Fat cat I actually think I'm gonna do that I've looked it up and if I throw 100 or so more dollars in I can get a faster setup going

I would definitely do that! It will provide you with much better performance since it's not the same architecture from 2011. Also, AMD will be supporting AM4 until 2020.
