Would this work well for interviews on a boom? As well as off camera audio for YouTube videos? Thanks
It probably wouldn't work very well. It's not a shotgun it's just a condenser mic. It will not have the distance that a shotgun would. Nor will the polar pattern be the same.

What dead cat will fit the M3? I have the Rode WS3 foam one already, looking for something to use outside.
The RODE M3 Versatile End-Address Condenser Microphone (BH # ROM3) will work with the WindTech Fur Fitted Microphone Windshield (B&H # WIMM600).
The Mic-Muff on average provides up to 20db of wind-noise reduction in a 20 mph wind, while producing no negative effect on frequency response. Typically, this windshield can be fitted directly over the foam windscreen that came with your microphone or video camera, but some models may require placement over the microphone alone.

How close does this need to be to the source? I have to film 3 people at once and was told I could boom a condenser or cardioid mic
Can this plug directly into dslr of using battery power?
Close proximity (within .5 meter, .25 meter or less is better). This mic is designed for use on ONE person. While one could POTENTIALLY use with more than one person, it is NOT designed for that purpose.
Additionally, a "Boom" Mic is typically designed to pick up only one person at a time.
To use one microphone for 3 people, the room or environment would have to be very quiet.
One Mic for each person is best, or, you may want to consider a "wider angle Boom Mic, such as those listed on B&H as "Stereo Shotgun Mics":
