No, all snakes are natural enemies. They will even eat one of their own kind. Each snake needs its own cage.

Not a real good idea. King snakes are part of the milk snake family, lampropeltis, and both snakes are known snake eaters in the wild. King snakes are even apparently immune to pit viper venom ( rattlesnakes, copperheads,moccasins). Even if both snakes were the same size, there would come a time, such as both snakes trying to swallow a prey item from opposite ends, when the snakes met in the middle, the one that could open it's mouth wider would swallow the other. Keep them separate.

Only if you don't mind feeding the milk snake to your king snake. King snakes eat all other snakes including their own kind .

Sure, but not for long. Kings eat other snakes in the wild.

Bad idea!
I have seen 2 CA kings trying to swallow each other in a petshop that made this same mistake.
Kings & milks can both be very canabalistic.

You could but you would probably end up with one fat kingsnake.
