May I put the mycelium in the deep-freezer in order to make it last longer?

No, you may not. Mycelium has to be kept at a temperature between 2 °C and 4 °C.

May I open the mycelium box, use a part of that and keep the remaining part aside and use it next time?

No, you may not. As you open the box you have to use it all. Opening the box without a reason causes damages to the mycelium.
