Will new ReFS be backward compatible with current ReFS filesystems?
Will existing archived data on Windows Server vNext ReFS be compatible with the native deduplication and compression features of the new ReFS?

Yes. There's just no path for ReFS in WS 2012. Dedup will be replaced by online dedup so one has to disable current dedup to use the new one.
