Yes, though until the final act much of it is going on behind the scenes. The main reveal is that all of the men of the town have been replacing their wives with "perfect" mindless animatronics and it can be assumed that the real women were killed.
Of the domestic violence that is shown, a woman confronts her drunk husband. He shatters a glass to frighten her and then gets in a physical altercation with her and forces her into a room. Later, she sneaks up behind him and hits him with a tire iron (she was justified though)

There's a moment where knowing glances and a suggestive note is passed between two characters, who were previously lovers before they broke up and got separately married. The protagonist is having marital issues and it does seem she is at the very least considering it. However, nothing occurs between them.

Nothing like that. Brief scene where a woman is talking to a therapist or psychiatrist after being gaslit into doing so by her husband. However, the psychiatrist believes her completely and does not try to make her think she is mentally ill.
