Not very clear - what you mean by 'other services'. However, let me tell you, qv script is a sequential work flow. If it is fetching data from source, it is doing only that and not executing another line of code simulteneously.

Qlikview sends sql queries to your database as all other tools do

It depends on the query, database type (concurrency, lock, ...), etc....

If you want a short answer I would say no (or usually no)

That is upto the DBMS and not QV. In general as rightly Massimo Grossi said, it's usually NO.
