Sure, you can use cream cheese instead of butter in cake, but be prepared for a denser and more moist texture. The flavor will also be slightly tangier due to the cream cheese. So go ahead, give it a try and see if you like the results!
Butter contains some water, so for 1/2 C oil, you'll want 2/3 C butter and reduce the liquid content of the recipe by a couple of tablespoons. That's if you want to be exact--you can get away with a 1:1 substitution for most recipes, it just won't be as perfect.
Definitely not. You can include some peanut butter if you want the flavor, but peanut butter isn't pure fat like butter so you'll still need most of the butter.
It depends on the cake. There are different types of cake.
