Yes.

No, that is why it is called a vent pipe not a soil line
Can you connect a new toilet to an older toilet vent?
Yes if the vent pipe is 4" and vertical by code and there is nothing connected between your toilet tee and where you would connect your new toilet tee. If not worried about codes then yes you can connect to a 3" vent line if no other vent lines are connected down stream. If you have a vent pipe that is less then 3" and or you have other vents connected between your old toilet tee and your new toilet tee then NO you can not connect a new tee for your toilet.

When using shower toilet bubbles then leaks now toilet is clogging?
As waste falls down a pipe it creates a positive pressure in front of it & a negative pressure behind it. To allow waste to flow down a pipe properly these presures are balanced via a soil vent pipe. Im not a builder, but sounds like there may not be a soil vent pipe on your system, or at least an 'air admittance valve' (AAV can sometimes be used if the soil pipe cant be taken externally).

When an upstairs toilet or shower is drained the basement toilet gurgles and drains when you flush the basement toilet at any time it's a VERY lazy flush unless you lightly-tip it off the wax?
Your vent pipe for that part of the plumbing is either blocked or non-existent. Having to tip the toilet off center slightly is letting air enter into the system, something that should be happening under normal conditions if the vent pipe were working properly. That vent pipe needs to be snaked out and cleaned.
What is the minimum pipe size to vent a toilet?
Normally 11/2" DEPENDING on developed length of piping and fittings
