Yes, make sure the stain is completely dry and you should have no difficulty.
It depends on the stain. If it is a water base stain then no. If it is a oil or solvent base it should be fine.
if you put a oil base floor sealer over water base you will find the top coat will flake and peal off your new floor. You need to wait 30 days before applying the oil base sealer to reduce your chances of peeling.
Only if the urethane paint is not waterbased... Urethane Paint cannot be mixed with anything except other Urethane products. Urethane Paints do not work on the same principals as "oil based" paints. Oil Based Paints rely on evaporation to dry. Urethane cures. by chemical reaction.
Assuming you're talking about wood finishing, spar urethane can be used over a water sealer. In fact, the combination is better than just a sealant or just the spar urethane. A very durable finish for outdoor wood products is soaking the unfinished wood with boiled linseed oil, letting the linseed oil cure, removing excess cured linseed oil, then applying spar urethane.
Look at label on can if urethane is oil based it should be fine. Think of it like basic chemistry. Oil and water dont mix, xlene based products are used to strip oil, so if ur using a xlene base over oil thats a no brainer. The urethane I use is a xlene base so I wld never use over oil. Im just not sure if they sell a oilbased urethane so check the labels

yes
Yes you can if it is a solid stain. However, if you're using toners or semi-transparent stains, you'll want to remove all the water based product prior to applying the oil based stain, otherwise, it will appear blotchy if the water based stain is worn unevenly.
urethane comes from oil

The color
Yes! Providing that the stain in question is "oil based"! If the stain is LATEX then no. Oil based products will mix, but oil and water won't! Water being the carrying agent of latex!
There are hundreds of shades of stain in all kinds of medium. I personally prefer gel stain as I find it easy to work with. Other people use liquid stains in water base or oil base.
No. Oil and water don't mix. -- Oil and water can be mixed. Emulsify it. You would need to mix in the oil slowly while stirring with an electric mixer. You would need to use a large enough quantity of paint for the mixer to be submerged.
