Is it necessary to perform Azure AD Connect full synchronization at a certain frequency?
If yes, is it possible to schedule it through AAD Connect?
If not, is it only recommended after changes to source objects and attributes?

    Full sync is usually only needed when you make configuration changes. It can sometimes be used as a troubleshooting step as well, but again mostly in the context of making sure the latest config changes are applied.
    You can force it manually via the Start-ADSyncSyncCycle cmdlet, or play with the scheduler: 

    Set-ADSyncScheduler -NextSyncCyclePolicyType Initial
