A.

"1E 266 — Empress Alessia dies."

"1E 416 — The Nords are driven out of Morrowind."

"Jurgen Windcaller goes on his "Seven-Year Meditation", culminating in the formation of the Greybeards."

Alessia was dead for 150 years before the gryebeards were first formed, meaning, she couldnt have gotten training from them.

As for B. there simply is no lore, from any book or dialog, that says Alessia killed dragons and took their souls..... so unti lthere is some lroe that says he did, she didn't, so she couldn't learn the Thu'um that way.

And all books, such as the Book of the Dragonborn have equated Alessia as being the same type of Dragonborn as Reman, and Tiber, so there is no reason to assume she wasn't until some lore says otherwise.
