I don’t know how either way, but pre-empting the first question: vision or perspective?

In vision, the treeview component allows the leaf icons to be designated for each item.

It is possible to add an icon property to the items in a Perspective tree:

Using this prop, it should be possible to use selection data and an onClick event script to switch back and forth between custom checkbox and uncheckbox icons.
