If the chimney is lined, yes. please contact your local authorities, the code enforcement or the fire chief .... probably not a problem

Yes, if less than 8 inches in diameter, that could work both in the same though. . .

Maybe. The question is: Will it be up to code. If this is the rite to do? Do not be a hack, do it the right way to run a kiln stack. If your insurance does not call the city inspector and show you what to do.

I did it successfully, but it was many years ago does not meet any building codes, I know.
In fact, the gas in the wood stove, fireplace chimney
receive, asbestos, metal or the equivalent of what they have and roof ventilation

Do not! It is dangerous and could cause fire or, worse, an explosion. In contrast to the exhaust gases from different sources of fuel are not mixed. Always use the national rules for the safety of the installation of fire. See if you can get a power vent for the stove. Ask a boiler fitter for suggestions.
Your insurance will not say if they determine that the hazardous installation and it is likely that you do not renew.
Not only because the heater is burning.
