It's not generally referred to by "heat", more a color temperature.

Stock is 4300K
Yes, you can change the bulb to a different color (ie, 6000K, 8000K)
I believe stock is 35watts
Depending on which generation it could be D2R, or D2S.

If you want to swap out the HID bulb for a different color, you'll want a D2R bulb.

Yes, you can change the bulb without removing the light housing from the car.
