You can but why would you want to. When you do a project you might as well do it right the first time just remember ';the quality of a project is long remembered after the cost is long forgotten';
no you can not use old paint for primer. you must use a primer like kilz for walls
You can, although kilz or another primer would minimize the flashing and imperfections. However, if you do a good job and double or even triple coat it it will look fine.
it really depends on what your priming, raw wood , or walls you could use old latex paint on your walls/ ceilings if it is still good and has been kept a a steady temp, but i would use a oil primer on any raw wood
