there is nothin in the act that suggest that u wont get the tax deduction for th total premium paid. But ensure u are satisfying 80C(3) requirements!

Yes, but subject to ceiling of 20% of actual sum insured for the policy issued on/before 31-03-2012.
Deduction under section 80C for lic premium is available on payment basis only.
