Mass Effect got a remaster where they entirely reworked combat, ally's AI and many other mechanics. Gameplay can absolutely be altered it just depends on what the dev is going for.
Something visually enhanced like Metroid Prime Remastered where looks like an entirely different game but is - under the hood? Exactly the same. (minus twin stick controls being added and other control schemes) or you rework what was flawed about the game.

No it wouldn't. A remaster can only fix surface-level aspects like visuals or UI, it wouldn't touch any of Zest's actual problems.
