I assume that if I've Bitcoin installed locally and I either run the GUI or the Daemon... It's the same wallet, data?
To that end, if I want to use the RPC interface, can i just use the GUI while developing (I like that at alerts on any action) rather than the daemon?
TL:DR: is the RPC 8332 port active when using the GUI, Vs the Daemon?

This depends on your configuration like -datadir. This can be specified by command line, or something like a registry key value (when you are using Microsoft Windows).
Note that recent versions of Bitcoin Core supports loading multiple wallet at same time.

Yes, of course both bitcoin-qt and bitcoind supports JSON-RPC.
