No. "Observation" involves interacting with the system under test, thereby necessarily changing the system. It is this interaction that results in quantum collapse. Yes. With our consciousness, we become curious and ask questions. We devise experiments that lead to quantum collapse. Is "consciousness" the only cause of quantum collapse? I guess that depends on the simulation we're in.
