Yes, during Sengoku Era Medieval Japan the Samurai were the equivalent to a soldier and the Ninja equivalent to Navy seal team or the CIA.
Japan was divided into states with each ruled by a daimyo(warlord) They all fought in controll over the entire Japan. Samurai armies fought open field while Undercover Ninjas only fought when they are caught
A daimyo for example would send a ninja who is highly skilled in guerrilla warfare to assassinate an enemy Daimyo so a ninja would bring the right weapons for the mission and sneak in to the enemies castle. The Ninja would avoid the samurai and hide with in the shadows. but if the ninja was suddenly caught by a samurai patrolling the castle, to the ninja they feel as if they already failed the mission but in the point of view of the samurai they would be in fear since they heared fake stories, rumors of how ninjas are unkillable demons.
In conclusion the Ninja only fought the samurai because they were caught in a mission or they had to defend themselves or someone they charished
History tells that ninjas used to be farmers, who defeated the samurais for revenge.
Ninjas, or samurais.
Knights, because ninjas are not actually fighters. Ninjas that fight are myths. Ninjas only fight if they need to defend themselves.
Ninjas are Warriors and Warriors are Ninjas but Ninjas would win.
Vikings are much stronger, but Samurais are faster. Also Samurais aren't afraid to die so probably Samurais.
Ninjas didn't fight. They were a spy to hear what is the plan of other teams that they fought when it was war time.
If you mean samurai swords, then yes. If you mean actually hiring samurai, then no. Some ninja were former samurai however.

They fought people who were unloyal to the Empire or people who went against their emperor. -GOLFWANG
There is was no such thing as "ninjas" in Ancient History. Although movies have made them into black suited and stealth like warriors, the only type of warriors Japan had were the famous Samurais. Sometimes though, Samurais would dress up in black suits to spy on an enemy or to assassinate.
ninjas rely on stealth while samurai fight in the open and will vomit suicide if they are dishonored
