Is it normal for the AC compressor to turn on and off when running the heater on a 2000 Chevy 2500 6.0 engine?

YES. The A/C will cycle on and off when the heater is on defrost. That stops the A/C compressor from locking up during the winter months.

It is possible a little low on coolant and has an air bubble in the heater core.
What is wrong when the ac and heater stops working but the blower still blows?
The AC and heater are completely different subsystems. The heater relies on heat generated by the engine and circulated by the engine coolant (radiator fluid) while the AC uses a belt driven compressor and separate fluids. Their only normal commonalities are the blower motor (which you said works), the ducting and the control head.

Why does my 1996 Sunfire heater deliver cold air on cold days?
Check your temperature gauge. If it shows the engine is running in the normal range then there could be a problem with the "air door" that controls how much air is brought in through the heater core. Or the core itself is plugged and needs to be flushed out. If the guage shows the engine is running cold , then you should have the thermostat replaced.

If your engine coolant temperature gauge is indicating that it is running much cooler than normal ( it sounds like the engine cooling thermostat is sticking open / not closing completely ) which means you need to have the thermostat changed. You should consider if have good heat from your heater and if your check engine light comes on.
