I'm not sure what you are asking. You can add object compiled by C or C++ into the same archive lib.

You can link C sources with aC++ objects, archives or shared libs, provided you use aCC to link.

See the above links.
Yes. If you want to call C++ functions in C, you need to declare them as extern "C" so they aren't mangled.
