Had one of the back wheels up off the ground when I started the car yesterday. It was definitely out of gear but the wheel was spinning. Pulling on the hand-brake stopped it easily but it was too fast to stop it by hand easily.

Could this indicate a clutch problem or something?

if you can put your foot on your clutch and get your car into reverse, your clutch is fine,
mostly that will be due to just abit of friction in the oil/parts in the tranny and imo is normal

You know what else if you keep lifting it off the ground using a common 2 ton jack youll finally rig up something to fit into the jack points. I have.
