2 questions: Can I use this lens on my Z7 and get the same results as I would on my DSLR? If yes, can I use this lens with the focus stacking feature on my Z7 and get good results?
I do not have a Z7 so I cannot speak from experience. However reading the available Nikon and B&H descriptions of the camera and lens, I see no reason why not. The Z7 has the same Focus Shifting feature as the D850 (which is fantastic) so all should be good.
