No. The pull-start gives the motor the initial momentum to start, and the electricity to generate the ignition spark comes from a crankshaft-driven magneto.

No they do not have an internal battery. You can add an external battery if desired.
You may have problems if the engine hasn't been started for so long. Yamaha's are very reliable, it will most likely start.
Normal lead-acid batteries (in boats and cars) will last about seven years.
