I have done this and I always have the hardwood installed first. Then I install the ceramic tile. To protect the hardwood floor from getting grout or glue on it I cover the hardwood floor with a soft cover (to prevent scratches) and tape it down. Then place a plastic cover over the hardwood. Then I can install the ceramic tile at the edge of the hardwood creating hardly or no seem and level with the hardwood. When its done it looks beautiful.
I would install the tile first , that way you don't risk getting glue or grout on your hardwood.

You should not tile on top of a hardwood floor. If you do, it will crack as the wood underneath will expand and contract throughout the seasons. Instead you should be installing on top of some sort of concrete floor. You could either add mud/self leveling mix or cement board. You may also want to remove the hardwood first, if you can.
Yes. I have done it. First have the hardwood floor installed. After the hardwood floor is installed have the tile installer install the tile. The reason for this is that the hardwood is very firm and has little room for adjustment. An excellent tile installer can adjust the height of the tile to be flush and level with the hardwood floor with little or no seem. When its done it looks beautiful.
You can glue the tile down, only concern is there enough room for the door to clear the tile?
It's not recommended in the bathroom, too much moisture. Go with tile.
