A:
The consensus of historians and biblical scholars is that the Books of Daniel and Esther were both novels, written long after the events portrayed, and therefore both Daniel and Esther were both literary creations. Although they were not real people, Daniel is portrayed as living at a slightly earlier period than Esther.
Answer 2
No. Even if the Esther and Daniel stories are taken as history, Esther not only lived after Daniel (by about a century), but she was the only one who lived in Shushan (in modern day Iran). Daniel lived in Babylon (in modern day Iraq) and Persepolis (in modern day Iran).

Do Jews use the same bible Christians use?
No, but they are quite similar. The Christian Old Testament without the Apocrypha contains the same books as the Jewish Bible in a different order and based on a different translation, so some important words are quite different. In addition, the Jewish Books of Daniel and Esther are shorter than their Christian counterparts.

Did Esther Nehemiah and Daniel live at the same time?
Daniel probably died shortly after Darius took the throne in 521 BC (he would have already been well over 90 years old at this point). The book of Nehemiah begins in 444 BC, so they probably missed each other by at least 50 years. Esther was a teenager in 482 BC, so Daniel had likely been dead for about 25 years at this point. Esther would have been in her early to mid 60's when the book of Nehemiah began, although her husband, King Xerxes was assassinated 20 years earlier (he was probably bout 20-25 years older than her (do the math a 37 year old king marrying a 14 year old or so, Esther...yuck...that's not what they showed in the movie). Anyway, there's no record of whether Esther was assassinated with her husband (which was likely), or if she was assumed in to the next King's harem (also possible...although a Persian King would have probably not been interested in a 35 year old, non-virgin wife. We just don't know. So, we know that Daniel was dead long before Esther was born and I'm going to guess that Esther probably died with her husband in 464 BC. Since Nehemiah was a leading figure in Jerusalem by 432 BC, I'm going to guess that he was born before 464 BC, so yes they probably lived at the same time. Nehemiah probably knew of Queen Esther before she died (I'm guessing she died in 464 BC) and maybe even met her a few times when He was a young boy. That being said, Esther probably didn't live to see the events of the book of Nehemiah, unless she survived the assassination, in which case she and Nehemiah may have known each other personally. I'm also guessing that Nehemiah was probably not around when the events of Esther took place or at the very least was too young to remember them clearly.

What book did both protestants and catholics follow the teachings of?
All Christians, both protestant and Catholic, follow the Bible, which is made up of the Old and New Testaments. The New Testament is the same for both. The Old Testament, for Catholics, has 7 books plus some additions to Esther and Daniel, that protestants don't recognize as canonical or divinely inspired. The 7 books are Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch/Jeremy, and 1 and 2 Maccabees. The sections of Esther protestant Bibles don't have is Esther 10:4 - 16:24. The sections of Daniel they don't have is the Song of the Three Children (Daniel 3:24 - 90), the Song of Susanna (Daniel 13) and the Idol and the Dragon (Daniel 14). Greek (Eastern) Orthodox Catholics add to that 1 and 2 Esdras and (I think) the Song of Manasses.
