Yes, you can activate your game on up to 5 PS3's.
Just be sure to delete your account after purchasing it so he doesn't purchase more games on it, and be sure he doesn't know the password to the account so he doesn't make the mistake of thinking he can share the download with friends like you did with him and use up your other 4 activations in the process.

Don't delete your account off his PS3 if you do he'll lose the license to the DLC and get an error code when trying to start it.
If you activate a PS3 and add your account to it you need to leave it on that system until you deactivate it.
Instead just don't auto-save your account password, you don't need to be logged into the account to use the games you download.

No.
But like Frankie said, make sure your password is removed. I'm not sure if it's like that on MvC2 but I know that if you're online on Tekken Dark Resurrection then it won't allow you to open the game on another PS3. I'm assuming it's the same with MvC2 that if he's online and you're also online, it won't allow you to open the game if he's already on it.

Thanks for the clarification.
Another method would be to simply change the password after doing this.
As for Tekken Dark Resurrection, I think only full blown retail titles do that. Not the XBLA like releases.
