Unaligned instruction execution - No. ARM instruction should be 4 byte
aligned and Thumb instruction should be 2 byte aligned.

Unaligned data access - to a certain extent yes and is programmable.
IIRC, access to 32 bit integer is possible at 2 byte boundary but not
at an odd address.

Yes, I was also a little puzzled by that one.
