The princesses and all the ponies were without any strenght after their magic was stolen. Everytime wee see sucked out ponies, they can't even move. Which included the princesses. How should they be able to fly out of Tartarus? Even if they could fly, we don't know if they can simply open portals to Tartarus like empowered Tirek. The "lost dog"-flyer could have simply been a method of finding him and then bring Cerberus back to his post. Not really an indications of ownership. To the cage thing: It could be both. We haven't seen the elments outright kill any opponent. So Tirek could simply be imprisonend with an intact body then just a mere soul. I mean, in the greek legends it's possible to go to Tartarus ( or Hades) by simply walking into it, making it possible to go in there alive. But he could be dead to, as I said,  there is no clear sign of his death.
