    Yes, a physical job can give you the same benefits as exercise.

    Yes, just make sure you are set to moderately active or active or if you're using the TDEE, include your activity level there.

    Yes, as others have said just make sure to set your activity level to match it (there are descriptions in case you're unsure where you fit) I would give you my personal experience with having a very physically active job, that working out (cardio and weights) has given me more energy and build up different muscles that help me get through my day easier. So while working out isn't necessary I have found it to be beneficial, for both my physical and mental health
