1) No - just two years at half a day for each full day spent in Canada.
2) Try the residency calculator:

They only look at the period of the 4 years before you apply. In order to have 1095 days in Canada in that period, because PR days count as half, the earliest you can apply is 2 years after getting PR. Then you would have, if you never left Canada, 730 days as a PR and the 2 years before that if you never left, 730 days that count as half so 1095 total.
