When registering the domain, addresses of NS servers of the form ns1.example.com, ns2.example.com were specified.

example.com - for example, my domain.

What happens if I change ns0.example.com, ns1.example.com from A record to Cname which will look at: dns1.yandex.ru and dns2.yandex.ru respectively.

depends on the registrar/delegator.
I think if the domain already exists, then this trick may pass,
but it's better not to do this, since most registrars require not only A records for NS servers, but even the corresponding correct reverse for IP.
Read the delegation rules for your domain, in the worst case, the domain can be taken away.
As for the work of the software for untying your name, I can’t say anything specifically here, but I think that most servers should work correctly.

no, he can not. This is prohibited and will not work.

No, he can not.
The RFC expressly describes this point as impossible.
If this is written in the bind config, it will not reload the zone.
