Once constructed, are they permanent? I mean, like, when an alliance invades a system of a neighboring alliance, do they have to destroy any starbases/outposts present before they can gain control of the system, do they just gain control of the starbases/outposts when they get control of the system?

Starbases (POS) can only be destroyed, they never change owner.

Outposts (Stations) are captured, never destroyed, in the process of capturing a system.

POS are unrelated to sov, you can have a POS in systems owned by hostile alliances. Taking sov involves capturing the station, as well as destroying the IHub and the TCU.
