Can you pause live TV on a Joey or just the Hopper?

You can pause live TV. It does not have to be recording to do it.

you should be able to pause live tv on the joey and resume on the hopper and vice versa.

Yes, but it needs something,(hard drive or solid state memory), to store the TV signal to when it's paused, at least that's the way on a VIP series receiver.
How does a Joey handle this?

The tuner is on the Hopper!!! You're controlling it from the Joey. The more interesting question would be how does it behave when you are looking at the tuner in use on the Hopper?

The tuners are all located in the Hopper. The Joeys take over one of the tuners that are available. You are able to do everything on the Joey that you can on the Hopper with the exception of picture in picture.
