It depends on what the lease says about notices. If the lease is silent on the issue, most courts would consider an email to be written notice if you can prove that it was received and read by the person to whom notice is due.

It could. Certified mail is the traditional means of giving notice but an email could serve the same purpose, especially if the landlord has acknowledged receiving the email.
