Re: using "include" in a Makefile

No, definitely not.  It works just like #include in C, etc.: the
contents of the included makefile are "inserted" at that point during
the read of the including makefile.

No directory change takes place, no new version of make is invoked.

If you want to do that you'll have to write a rule to do it.
