No they can not survive together. The African Zebra fish (Diplodus cervinus) is a Marine species. The Neon Tetra (Paracheirodon innesi) comes from the Amazon river and requires very fresh water. Either fish would die given the water conditions required by the other.

It is possible. but not generally accepted as goldfish are coldwater fish that produce high amounts of ammonia and require more food than the Danios which are more tropical and can be more susceptible to water chemistry issues.

Can you keep 5 goldfish and 2 zebra danios in a 21 liter tank with decorations?

This is not a good idea. 7 small fish - for example 7 zebra danios - would fit in a 21 litre tank provided it had strong filtration, and frequent large water changes were carried out (50% weekly.) However, goldfish are absolutely not suitable for this tank. For starters, goldfish grow extremely large - the 12 inch long monsters you see in people's ponds are exactly the same species as the small fish sold for aquariums. If given adequate food and space, they will reach this size. It is extremely cruel to keep them in a tank that is too small to allow them to grow. Also, goldfish are extremely messy - they require more food and produce more waste than most fish. With such a small tank, you're better off sticking with smaller, nano-friendly fish. Zebra danios are a good choice - they are attractive, stay small and will forgive a beginner's mistakes. You could also consider small tetras or livebearers. Don't try to keep more than six or seven small fish, or you will overstock the tank.

Do goldfish get along with glow fish?

'Glowfish' are in fact common Zebra Danios (Brachidanio rerio) but these are a 'made in Taiwan', genetically engineered fish. They are banned from sale and production in some states and counties on ethical grounds. They are tropical fish and so require totally different conditions from those required by goldfish which are coldwater fish. So the answer is 'no they will not get along successfully because they need totally different sets of water conditions.
