Dwarf hamsters reach sexual maturity around 4-5 weeks, which means they can get pregnant at that time. If you do not want a bunch of pregnant "baby" hamsters you should separate them before 4-5 weeks. At 3 weeks they are weaned and don't need their mom anymore. You can find happy new homes at that time.

I wouldn't suggest it, the hamster might not harm them, but I wouldn't take the risk. We've had mice killed by hamsters, and even by their own mother. Not a pretty picture, so I wouldn't try it until the mice are older.
