Yes but you will loose all your advanced features(wifi calling, HD voice, etc.)

Does this require unlock bootloader first?
No as you are flashing between different Samsung official firmware.

What are the benefits of installing this over my T-mobile software? No root yet, right? Does it at least unlock the Sim?
None, it doesn't unlock the sim or allow root. Most people use this to remove carrier bloatware or as a stepping stone to convert from one carrier firmware to another.

I believe the latest U1 firmware and Latest AT&T firmware match(both end in ARF4) so you should be able to still do this.
