It is a debuff, which means you cannot remove it, unlike it's equivalent, Divine Intervention. So you have to stand petrified for full duration. And you're out of combat, so any mobs will ignore you.

Whether it will actually remove the debuff, I don't know, but in any case, it aint gonna be good for you to use it.

It's possible. Here's what the buff says after you've applied it.

Petrification
Immune to all attacks and spells. Cannot attack, move or use spells.
1 minute remaining

Zavi what do you mean? How is the flask not going to be good to use? It prevents a death, and as you probably know, a death heals him.

Doesn't really matter that much..

Ya... I was actually just looking at that.

3 others before couldn't answer you, but the answer is no. Once you have the debuff, there's nothing in Azeroth which will save you.

Yeah, it would kinda be a gimped fight if the flask worked...
