Yes,it gives a lovely texture to the bread,if you have a lot you could add a little milk to thin it out,too much cream can make the bread a bit heavy. You can also freeze it and use later.

It depends how "gone off" it is.

Cream that is slightly on the turn should be fine, but if it is days and days old and is smelling and tasting off, then it is gone rancid and I cant see it making good bread.

In the old days, sour milk was used instead of buttermilk, but this was unpasteurized so went sour quickly and was still usable.

Pasteurized milk and cream has a long shelf life. Once it is gone off, its quite old.
