The answer is sadly maybe or maybe not. Depends what you’re planting. Some species need to go through the winter to break dormancy. You might lose all or most seeds to weather, animals, or low germination rates
Topsoil will have random seeds from wherever the soil was sourced from so you’ll be adding random seeds to what looks like an area you removed weeds from
With an area that size I’d buy plugs to use instead. It wouldn’t take very many and would guarantee flowers

Yeah I don’t see why not.
Check to see if there’s a local wild ones chapter nearby, they always have good references for native plant suppliers.

DONT BUY SOME RANDOM PACK OF “WILDFLOWERS”
Plant stuff that is NATIVE to your area – honestly tell me what state and the general sun/moisture conditions and I’ll make a list for you of a dozen plants.
