A catholic priest cannot have sex they take a vow of celibacy. They usually take holy orders at an early age so if they stick to their vows are likely to never have sex in their life.
An anglican vicar can have sex, but it is usually frowned upon outside of marriage. The person they marry should also be of the same faith, or convert to anglican, and should be considered to be morally upstanding in the eyes of the church.

Catholic priests are not allowed to get married and the rules of no sex outside marriage apply to them as to others

Catholic Priests must stay celibate once vows are taken...they don't have to be virgins...they could have had a wild life in their teens, but got the "calling" in their late 20's!
Vicars, ministers, preachers and any other names for formal church leaders are allowed to have relationships, just like any other people!

It all depends on the Church.
Anglican Priests definitely can - whereas Catholic Priests are 'married' to the church so cannot.

Depends on the sect. Some can, but most priests do not.

Yes of course but it does depend on their religeon. C of E they are, Catholic I think they take a vow of celebacy. Sorry I don't know about all the other religeons. My partners Grandfather was Cannon and a Vicar and he was married.

A priest is a vicar and our local vicar has sex- I've slept with his daughter and she was one dirty lady... It's always the quiet ones...
