Does Shai-Hulud let the Wild Maker move and attack, and when can it act on the turn it arrives?

Yes if it is already in play, because the move and attack is the Shai-Hulud card's effect rather than the Wild Maker's. On the turn the Wild Maker first arrives its leader card is exhausted face down, so its special ability cannot be used that round; it refreshes at End of Round. Once in play, its ability can place a Sandworm even when the figure is off the board, as long as the card is not spent.
