Some can, it depends on the exact components in both. -Experiment with small amounts and find out.
Yes, but be sure that neither of the paints are oil based, lest you open a whole new can of worms...:-}
Oil based primer is the best bridge between oil and latex paints. If oil based paints are not available in your area, a high adhesion acrylic primer over a well prepared surface will also work.
Yes, since both are water based paints you can mix the to together.
Of the two paints you are going to try mixing, a water based paint (latex), with a spirit based (possibly methalated) . Not a good idea as they will separate. DO NOT MIX! On the containers for these paints you will be told how to wash your brushes ie.. Water for Latex. Turpintine, or Varsol for the Oil based paints and stains. Again, Oil and Water do NOT MIX!!!
Latex paint has Acrylic in it. Some paints have more than others, it affects the drying time. Use either one, it will not affect the finish look.

Generally they can be intermixed.
Latex and acrylic (both water-based paints) do come in a semi-gloss finish.
There is little difference between many acrylics and latex paints.
The solution in which the pigment is suspended. i.e. the pigment is suspended in a water-based solution in latex paint, but in an oil-based solution for alkyd (oil) paints.

Yes and no depending on the type of paint you use paints such as oil based ,acrylic ,latex and lead paints should not be used. safe paints such as milk paint or even food coloring are safe.

In interior or exterior house paints.... Acrylics, emulsions and latex are, oils, lacquers and shellacs are not. In artists' paints... acrylic, watercolour, gouache, and some water based airbrush paints are, oils are not..
House paints are typically made of pigments, binder, and solvent. Pigments contain the colors, the binder holds everything together, and the solvent to provide consistency when you paint. Some paints are made from latex or acrylic, some are oil based, and some have other synthetic substance like elastomer.
