The question marked as a duplicate has a complex answer to a relatively simple question.

The simple answer (for page number) is very similar to this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/40264237/2296441. The difference is just which field to insert. The afore mentioned answer shows how to insert a TOC field. In your case you want a PAGE field.

XWPFParagraph p;
...
// get or create your paragraph
....
CTP ctP = p.getCTP();
CTSimpleField page = ctP.addNewFldSimple();
page.setInstr("PAGE");
page.setDirty(STOnOff.TRUE);

Note: setDirty tells Word to update the field which causes a dialog to be opened when the document is opened. This dialog is MS Word making sure you want to update the field. I don't think you can disable the dialog and still have the field calculated on open.

To set page borders you are once again going to have to break into the CT classes. In this case the appropriate location in the document is the section properties. Here is how to set a double line border around the whole page set back 24 points from the page edge.

// Page Borders
CTDocument1 ctDoc = doc.getDocument();
CTBody ctBody = ctDoc.getBody();
CTSectPr ctSectPr = ctBody.isSetSectPr() ? ctBody.getSectPr() : ctBody.addNewSectPr();
CTPageBorders ctPgBorders = ctSectPr.isSetPgBorders() ? ctSectPr.getPgBorders() : ctSectPr.addNewPgBorders();
ctPgBorders.setOffsetFrom(STPageBorderOffset.PAGE);
CTBorder ctBorder = CTBorder.Factory.newInstance();
ctBorder.setVal(STBorder.DOUBLE);
ctBorder.setSpace(new BigInteger("24"));
ctPgBorders.setTop(ctBorder);
ctPgBorders.setBottom(ctBorder);
ctPgBorders.setRight(ctBorder);
ctPgBorders.setLeft(ctBorder);
