If so, is it easier to put new wallpaper over the old or strip it off and paint

Strip off all the old wallpaper and paint it might be a pain but you will see that the walls look alot better.

Yes you can.
Generally they are textured – some are raised like tin panels.
I once hung wallpaper professionally – you can even paint over flocked wallpaper to give it an interesting texture.
Avoid any smooth products as they will show every imperfection.
