Impeachment of the US President does not seem to be in the plans of the current session of the House of Representatives (the process starts there). Even though many of their constituents feel such an action is warranted and overdue, all the representatives are a bit busy with their own re-election campaigns and feel taking such an action would not serve their own best interests - or the general re-election goals of the GOP. Therefore, it is unlikely there will be any impeachment.
The President can be impeached. After Abraham Lincoln was assassinated his vice President (Andrew Johnson) was impeached. Also Nixon was impeached
To get impeached the president would have to bribe, lie, or have a misdemeanor against him.
President Andrew Johnson and President Bill Clinton were both impeached. President Richard Nixon was supposed to be impeached, but he stepped down from office before the official impeachment, so technically he wasn't impeached.
The second President to be impeached was William J. Clinton, in 1998.

If a president is impeached, then the vice president takes over and serves out the rest of the term as president.
The impeachments for each person would be separate, but they can most certainly be impeached at or near the same time. But that depends on how the House of Representatives wished to proceed - they could decide that handling both impeachment procedures concurrently would be too much all at once.
