Depends, but usually not. A Campy 10 speed + a Shimano derailer will index cleanly with a Shimano 8 speed cassette. Other combos are theoretically not clean matches, but some people consider them to run well enough to be useful anyhow.
If you do a net search for "shimergo" you'll find a link to an UK site listing possible combos.
There's als a company called JTEK who make adapters which allow you to mix and match.
Brakes don't care and can be mixed either way.

Are mavic freewheels compatible with shimano shifters?
Strictly speaking Mavic doesn't make freewheels, which is the name for an integrated unit holding BOTH the sprockets and the one-way clutch mechanism. Mavic makes freehub bodies, and they make them for both Shimano and Campagnolo sprocket clusters(AKA cassettes). Which means that if you have a Mavic wheel/hub you can set it up either for Shimano or another brand, by using the appropriate bits. Although there are a few workarounds and fixes, you'll usually get more reliable results if your shifters match both your cassette and your derailer.
Can you use a 10spd rear derailleur with 9speed shifters?
Depends on their actuation ratio. Shimano 10-speed MTB line is rumored not to match up to 9-speed shifters. Shimano 10-speed road derailers are supposed to work with 9-speed systems.

Is sram compatible with Shimano?
They're two different manufacturers of bicycle parts, mainly gears(shifters, derailers, cassettes and chainrings/cranks, and brakes). Both have a range of quality/price levels. For the same money, the stuff is very similar in performance. some prefer one some prefer another.
Can a rear derailleur on a bike be swapped with one which is not the same?
Depends. If you stay within the Shimano family RDs are usually interchangeable, but they need to have the same cage length to be able to take up tha same amount of chain slack. SRAM and Campagnolo (mostly) use another throw ratio and are usually not interchangeable with Shimano.
