You need to ask your trading service about this:
Is the TradeAccountDataFields.m_CurrentCashBalance the net balance of the account including commissions?

We do not know.

No, definitely this does not update tick by tick:
Also, if so, will this update on a tick-by-tick basis or is it dependent on an external service update cycle?

I found sc.GetTotalNetProfitLossForAllSymbols(). Does this value include commissions? If not, is there a way to get the commission total at the account level?
It can include commissions that you set yourself:
Chart Settings: Use Symbol Commission Setting in Trade List and Statistics Calculations (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading menu)
