Answer 1

check Get-PnPSiteTemplate. If you want to copy content use 3rd party migration tools like Sharegate.

Answer 2

Hi, @Glenn Maxwell ,

Are you using SharePoint Online or On-Premise? If you are using SharePoint Online, there is not a built-in feature for moving sites cross tenants. You can create a new team site with the same set up in your test environment and connect to your unified group. And 3rd party tools will also be an option. Microsoft now has mover as a cloud migration option which you can have a check on moving files and contents.
