You could not gather what temperature the fires burned at from the rubble, to many variables to deal with.

Tower 2 was hit in the corner of the central supports, weakening it more then the first tower, the fire was the ultimate cause, but the second tower was more damaged to begin with.

Unfortunately, no it would not. As the beams expanded, they push the outer wall out; therefore, instead of the floors above being directly above, they are at an angle, albeit slight, this weakens the structure severely. Just as my old soda can example, you can stand on a soda can, as long as the sides are perfect, as soon as you warp one, the can will collapse, just like the building.
