Following is a response from DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Tom Pullum:

The answer to your first question is definitely "yes". You have correctly described the structure of the couples file. However, the men's and women's variables are not always in pairs. There are variable for women that do not have matching variables for men (and vice versa, although less often). To see whether the question about fathers was asked of men, you should go through the men's questionnaire, which is in an appendix at the back of the main report on the survey (https://www.dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/FR339/FR339.pdf).
