No. Mercury lies very close to the sun, and 'follows' the sun across the sky very closely. Therefore it is usually only seen right before dawn or just after sunset.

Which planets are never seen at midnight?

The planet Mercury can never be in the sky at your local midnight. Mercury's orbit is so small that as seen from the earth, it's always near the sun. So if the sun has been down for a while, then Mercury also must be down. Venus can be seen later (or earlier) than Mercury, but it's still inside the Earth's orbit and therefore can't be seen at midnight either.

Can we see any planets from mercury?

Yes. You could probably see all of the planets that you see from Earth as well as Earth itself. You might also be able to see Uranus as well from the night side of Mercury. Uranus is generally too faint to be seen from Earth but Mercury, which would not be much farther away from than Earth is, has no atmosphere to distort or obscure light from the planet.
