No. But goldfish can eat tropical fish food, like bettas can. Do not feed goldfish any food that is for betta fish only.
They can, but shouldn't there isn't enough nutrients in the food to keep goldfish healthy. Try flakes or pellets made specifically for goldfish.
Not particularly only if the fighting fish is territorial, if so, quickly take the fighting fish out of the tank
