Yes to all of your questions.

The Jailbreak app My3G tricks your iPhone into thinking it is on WiFi, enabling you to use FaceTime over 3G.

should be noted that a Facetime call uses approx. 3MB/minute of 3G data.

Just to update an old question, this is now a carrier issue - most carriers either allow Facetime over cellular or have an option to pay for it.

3G Unrestrictor does this as well, and it's available in Cydia, so you don't have to put Rock on your phone.
