To access the services offered by the device your app needs to be created on your developer account. If you just want to run code, no, you can just install an APK, as long as you have ADB access.

When you get to the point of uploading an APK, ensure you sign it with your production developer key. This is standard Android so nothing special. Once it's uploaded signed with that key, you will need to use the same key to sign subsequent updates.

If you want to install a debug version of your APK on a device that's otherwise downloading production version of the APK, you won't be able since the signatures will be different (unless you sign your debug APKs with your production key). In that case you can uninstall the production version of the APK prior to installing the debug APK.
