Default limit of trim = limit of travel?

Are the limits of control surface movements produced by setting trim to its
extremes also usually the absolute limits of travel for those surfaces, or is
it usually possible to move them further with movement of the yoke? Or does
this vary significantly from one aircraft design to another?

I don't have any actual figures handy, but my answer would be no. You
should have movement on the major control surface available beyond the
max trim limits.
