If Wi-Fi is not present, can the controller be updated through Bluetooth?

No, the controller can only be updated through a Wi-Fi connection.

Do I need to update the controller before I use the grill? We do recommend updating the controller before using the grill to ensure it is running on the latest update, but it is not required before using the grill.
