Not quite.

First, you must roll for Leader Creation.  See A18.12.

Then, you must decide whether you will Withdraw or whether you will attack.  
Per the penultimate sentence of A11.22 (2nd Ed): "If the option to withdraw 
is taken, it must be done immediately; the unit cannot wait to make its own 
attack (if it has not yet done so_ or see th outcome of other attacks before 
leaving."

This is backed up by this from A18.12: "Unless one or both sides Withdraw 
due to Infiltration (11.22), both attacks are re-figured using both the 
originally-rolled Original DRs and the new leader's FP/Leadership just as if 
he had been there all along."

No.  If you may not both attack and Infiltrate using the same Original 2 DR.

This is spelled out in A11.22.
