Most of the features are installed by Plesk and if you do not want to have Plesk on your server then you will have to install them manually. Yes, you will be able to install your own copy of anti virus on the server.

No the current anti spam settings will not work for you on your semi dedicated server. You will have to install an Anti-Spam protection on your server or use a third party mail server. I would recommend you to use google aps for your email requirement which will also reduce your work to manage the email server and if you use your registrar DNS then your email will never go down even if your sever is offline for any reasons.
