As for Android apps updating their own code, it is possible, and it is occasionally done.

Can it be prevented?

Android now sets the /data and /sdcard partitions so that code cannot be executed from them. Those are the only places that apps have permission to write. So apps cannot download and store code. The only option is to download code and keep it in RAM.
