Hi,

Welcome to Toolset support and I'd be happy to assist.

1) create custom post types that are searchable, etc. and

- You can create searchable custom post types using the Toolset Types plugin:

2) is able to import a CSV file with about 6500 line to custom post type? How may I go about doing that?

- There are a number of third-party plugins available to import posts in WordPress and we have a detailed step-by-step guide on the topic at:
https://toolset.com/course-lesson/how-to-import-content-into-wordpress-using-csv/

Additionally, if you're migrating into WordPress from a different platform, this overview article will also prove useful:
