In general, work is the rate at which energy is converted, or transferred. It may specifically refer to mechanical work, but it need not be that. For example, the amount of radiation radiated by the Sun can be measured in watts (a unit of power), but most of the energy emitted is unrelated to mechanical energy.

No, power is the rate at which work is done. It is the amount of work done per unit of time.
