Would the alkoxide form if an hydroxide was dissolved in methanol?

No. Alkoxide ions are stronger bases than hydroxide ions. The only way of making an alkoxide is by reacting a hihgly reactive metal such as sodium with the corresponding alcohol (react sodium with methanol to produce sodium methoxide). In water sodium methoxide will react to produce sodium hydroxide and methanol.


Can 1-chlorobutane be prepared from 1-butanol using NaCl and acetone?

Probably not. Cl- is a good nucleophile, but you have to first turn the OH group in 1-butanol into a good leaving group. The easiest way probably is to first react 1-butanol with tosyl chloride to form a tosylate (-OTs) group, which is an excellent leaving group, followed by addition of NaCl.
