Printer should not charge you an extra money since basically you are doing them a favor by not converting to CMYK, especially if your RGB images are properly tagged.

CM or not CM depends on too many factors.
It can work but it might not work, YMMV.

People in our industry are pretty much still ignorant about proper CM and it will take big vendors push to make CM "one button press" that works.

If you are familiar with CM and you think you can properly implement it, do a test with your printer.
Problem is if your printer is not up to date (which is most) and they have no experience and/or tools to deal with it.
In such case find printer that can and do a test.
