Can I get an accurate reading at 4" deep?

Yes. The sensor is near the tip, so 4" deep is no problem.

How long does it take to get an accurate reading ?

You should see a stable temperature reading after a few minutes

I don’t think so. I use mine, wipe it off and place it back in the box

Can this be left in the compost pile all the times or should it be removed when not being read?

I wouldn't but I'm sure you can it'd aluminum over time it deteriorate so your choice too
