Recruiter asked whether I could start earlier than the date on my application. Should I say yes if I'm unsure?

I have an offer but the proposed start date conflicts with a personal commitment. I haven't accepted yet. Is the start date something you can ask to change during the offer discussion, or should I accept first and deal with it afterward?

I have a consulting offer and I'm excited about it, but I still have questions about the actual team and day-to-day work. Is it normal to ask recruiting to connect me with future colleagues before I make a decision?
