I think you wont face any problems with hardware requirements... Most probably, the modem that you get will connect to the USB port, so you may not need a Ethernet port... You can confirm this with the company... Even if you need one, it is pretty cheap...
Yes... The dialup modem and the new Modem use different connections and can be used together...

You'll get modem with ethernet or usb. So you don't have to worry about it. If you dont have ethernet in your mobo, go for an usb modem

The least costly modem offered by BSNL and which is used by most of the people and which costs Rs.1200 has both USB and Ethernet ports. You can use any of these two and cables for both are supplied along with the modem. But Ethernet is supposed to be better. Whether your Mobo has Ethernet, can be verified either by referring its manual or by visually inspecting the PC's anterior portion. If it is not there, you can buy a PCI Ethernet card for about Rs.200.

And you can surely use both the dial up and ADSL.
