No.  If at any point your JavaScript finishes executing there are no
running or pending requests the transaction becomes inactive.

Not directly.  Attempting to place a new request will fail with a
TransactionInactiveError though.

oncomplete is called after the transaction is committed.  The transition
from active to inactive is what starts committing the transaction, so
oncomplete is far too late to determine that.
