How did you enter the US? With a tourist visa? If yes, then you can file I-485 together with the I-130. If so, then I don't see why you need to both leave the US and use Form I-601A.

At what age did you get DACA? And have you renewed it whenever necessary? Unlawful presense before age 18 is not counted. The 3 year bar comes into play after 180 days of unlawful presense that counts (again any time under 18 does not count). If you received DACA before age 18 and a half then I-601A is not required: https://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/having-daca-since-under-18--is-i601a-needed-with-i-3533857.html

Not for that reason.

Then no, you need to complete consular processing abroad for an immigrant visa. AOS is not an option.
