They can, but they won't conceive a calf. It's just like with two women having sex: they can arouse each other to orgasm, but that won't mean that they will conceive a child between them. In the case of the bovine world, if a cow is in heat, she can (and will) ride other cows or heifers and other cows and heifers will ride her, but because they don't have the "tools" necessary to get her bred, she cannot conceive a calf. That's where the bull comes in, or the AI technician.

Ideally ranchers want heifers, and young bull calves are turned into steers and then are sent to market in a year.
When do you separate cattle?
Whenever you need to separate them. Honestly, it's your choice when you want to separate them. But note that in terms of cow-calf herds, you need to separate calves from cows when the calves are around 6 months of age. It may be a good idea to separate bull calves and steer calves and their mommas from the cows that have heifer calves at their side a month or two prior to weaning. Heifers and steers can be together, but you need to separate bull calves from heifers and keep them separate during the weaning process. This minimizes the risk of these young bulls breeding an early-maturing heifer and getting her bred by accident. Cows should be separated from bulls (NOT vice-versa, as it's more dangerous to separate bulls from the cows) after 60 to 80 days have passed since the bull was put in with the cows. Separate cull cows from the main cowherd the day you are going to sell them or, if you want to fatten up these cull cows, a few weeks prior to selling them. Before winter sets in, separate thin cows from the fat or normally-conditioned cows and put them with your bred heifer herd.
How long does it take for a cow to grow up?
