Christianity and Islam have some opposing teachings, so no, a person cannot be both Christian and Moslem.
Christianity is actually Messianic Judaism--we believe that God sent the Saviour, Jesus, through the Jewish race to save the world. This is born out through a study of the many messianic prophecies found to be fullfilled in Jesus Christ.
So, yes, it is possible to be a Jewish Christian. In fact, at the beginnings of Christianity, ALL of the belivers were Jews! When the Gentiles wanted to believe in Jesus too, oy vey, did they have problems! God had to send one of the most rock-headed believers ever--Simon Peter--to a Gentile house with a vision, just to make the point (that Gentiles could be Christians also).
Buddhism is a variation of Hinduism, which has many gods and goddesses. It is impossible to be monotheistic and polytheistic at the same time. Besides, Siddartha Gautama (the Buddah) never claimed divine revelation or lineage, and never performed miracles. He was more the Hindu version of Moses, bringing a solid moral code where there was only confusion.

I was a Buddhist, now I am a Baha'i.
When I was a Buddhist, I didn't belong to a Buddhist association, because I didn't know which one to choose among so many Buddhist associations, and I had no authentic Scriptures of the Buddha for my deepening in His Teachings.
When I became a Baha'i, I know more clearly about Buddhism, I realize that Buddha is not a human being, but He is the Holy Spirit manifested in the human temple.
I became a member of the Baha'i world community with the belief that Baha'u'llah is the Holy Spirit, the new advent of the Founders of all previous world religions. So I believe not only in the Baha'i Faith, but I believe in all religions from the One True God.
Through the Baha'i Teachings, I understand that the One True God created all mankind and He successively sends His Messengers to bring man up nearer and nearer to Him.
So the fundamental belief of a Baha'i is:
One God
One Religon
One Mankind.

Matthew 6:24 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)
Public Domain
24No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
So realistically you at least can't follow Christianity and have belief in anything else but Christianity... and well being a Jew and a Muslim.... isn't that a double negative? Considering there is a population of Muslims that care to wipe out Jews...

Many people of a particular religion may not agree with or understand the rationale in a particular principle(s) or rule(s). This is when they turn to other religions for answers. If they find more clarity about those rules or principles in that other religion they might start following that also. It doesnt really matter which religion the person follows or how many. As long as the overall ideals of those religions give him spiritual happiness and satisfaction.

There was a learned man in India, who professed the concept of Universal Religion. If you can get your hands on some books of Swami Vivekananda, you may begin to believe in it yourself. All religions have the same basic principle & purpose- the worship of God, doing good, helping others. No religion teaches evil. There is one God and every form of worship is accepted by him. Why believe in just one or two religions? Who would stop you? Believe in all religions of this world.

If someone does believe in two religions and one is Christianity, they should probably read the Bible with a deeper hunt for truth. It clearly says that Jesus is THE way, THE truth and THE life. That means that there is only one. I am not well versed in other religions, but our God is a jealous God. He wants us to worship Him alone. Hope this helps.

You can believe whatever you want. The old texts that religions are based on are vague and contradictory anyway. If you can believe in one of them, you can believe in many of them. There is virtually no limit to the extent that people can rationalize away conflicts.

Grace unto you and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Holy Bible speaks of "comparing" two "contrary" religions: impure religion (law) and "pure religion" (grace); As comparing two spirit-u-all things written as "allegory"-ic "mystery" to solve and "learn" from; One of such "spirits"(Gods) being called "antichrist" (anti-"the end of the law"). So the biblical exhortation is believe NOT every spirit (1Jn 4). Rather "try (test) the spirits" (Gods, Sons, Religions), or compare-i-son both Jesus & Christ, to know which is witch of twain, prior to taking either one out for a global ride.
Jesus: "division" and not peace
Christ: "peace" and not division
Hint: mark & avoid them which cause "division"
Law: is good, but it's also evil.
Grace: is good, but never evil.
Hint: discern(avoid) both good & evil.
Believing both spirits (grace & law: good & evil: life & death) is not only an oxyMORON with a DEAD end (latter end "WORSE") called "one proselyte": "twofold": "more the child of hell" than former "hypocrites, fools, vipers, and blind guides" who sat in "Moses' seat"; But also called "doubleminded" (James 1).
In modern medical terms doublemindeadness is called Bi-Polar Dis-Order (mental illness). And in the medical journal the most recent Harvard medical survey reveals over 25% of Americans are diagnosed and being treated for such mental illness. Worse yet is experts feel 55% are mentally ill, but many are not yet diagnosed or being treated... scary thought... but no matter, for "the end" of the "shew" purposed to "shew who is the blessed and only Potentate" of such law vs grace is already written:
The "grace" of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.
