re: Replacing galvanized water pipe with PVC

I was planning on cutting the line I want to replace with a sawzall, putting a pipe wrench on the drop line I want to stay in place, and smacking the cut off piece connected to the elbow with a hammer to loosen it. Bad idea?

I also need to tee off of the cold PVC line to run a line to the icemaker. Is there a PVC fitting made specifically for this?

Yes, if you try and beat the piece off you could make things worse not better.
You need to use a wrench to hold back on the elbow and another wrench to back out the old "nipple".
Stilson wrenches are best.;
