On the fence in regards to purchasing this game.

Is there a cooperative sort of online mode?

I have read this game supports 10 player online, if I and my friend were to purchase this game could we play on the "same team"? In terms of organizing the same empire?

There's no shared control mode ala StarCraft if that's what you mean, no. Just regular teams configurable any way you like.

Are we able to be on the same team against computer controlled players? Sorry if you just answered that question in one form or another.

There can be up to 10 teams (depending on map size) and teams can be locked
So on a 10 player map you could have
2v2v2v2v2
3v3v3v3
4v4
5v5
FFA

or some other such combination

As such, you can work together, give each other resources, but cannot control each others ships or facilities.
You can setup slots to be AI so you could do 2v4 AI etc...
