I suppose you could as long as it is solid....
Not the best idea. Hardwood floor should be angle nailed down, but obviously you cant do that. I think hardwood flooring would dry out and separate in places if glued.
Yes, it must be a glue down wood or a floating wood floor.
Hardwood, carpet, laminate, ceramic tile, vinyl flooring. the list goes on.
I have done this and I always have the hardwood installed first. Then I install the ceramic tile. To protect the hardwood floor from getting grout or glue on it I cover the hardwood floor with a soft cover (to prevent scratches) and tape it down. Then place a plastic cover over the hardwood. Then I can install the ceramic tile at the edge of the hardwood creating hardly or no seem and level with the hardwood. When its done it looks beautiful.I would install the tile first , that way you don't risk getting glue or grout on your hardwood.
The floors themselves install in a very similar fashion. If you want a floor with a lot of shine, you will want to go with hardwood. If cost is an issue, laminate.
No, laminate is floating type of floor installed over an insulation pad. Hardwood floor has to be nailed, stapled or glued to the subfloor. If you do manage to install hardwood on top of laminate sooner or later your Laminate floor will expand due to high temperature or humidity and it will create gaps between hardwood planks.

no I have seen it done (really), but it's a bad idea.
It is a floor that is not nailed or fastened anywhere. It does not touch the walls or base or anything, usually the requirement is .5 inch. So essentially it "floats".
The Bissell steam mop can be used to clean a vinyl floor. In fact it can also be used on marble, ceramic, stone, laminate, linoleum and sealed hardwood floors.
