Can you burn wood with paint on it?
You should never burn wood with paint on it unless you know, specifically, what kind of paint it is, that the paint is question is safe to burn, and that there is no other chemical treatment on the wood. There is such a thing as paint that is safe to burn, but you should never assume a given paint is safe. In particular, you should avoid burning wood with lead based paint on it, and much of the old paint was lead based.
Can you paint right over a already painted baseboard?
As long as you are using a similar type of paint (I expect it is an indoor latex, since baseboards are found indoors) and as long as the existing paint is still in good condition and is not flaking off, then yes, you can paint right over the existing paint. If the paint is in bad condition, you should remove it before repainting.
