No. That would be D A D F# A D.

Yes. What you have to do here is use nonstandard string guages.
In Albert's tuning the 6th and 5th stings are 5 semitones lower than
normal, and the other 3 are 3 semitones lower.
You can usually get away with 1 or 2 semitones different than normal
without restringing but this is way too far to go.
You would need to dedicate a guitar to just playing Albert's stuff (or
Albert's style).
Then you would string it with lighter-than-normal guage strings.
Instead of (say) .52 .42 .30 .20 .16 .12
you might need (say) .42 .32 .26 .16 .12 .09
I'm just guessing here but the guesses are probably pretty close.
You can buy single strings in any guage you like. I would say: try the
guages I suggested and if any strings are too tight or too loose then
use something lighter or heavier respectively.

Not really, although that is what you would do if you don't have a
guitar to dedicate to Albert's tuning. You definitely cannot play both
tunings on the same guitar with the same strings.

Sorry about that. They're trying to show you how he does what he does.
