  1. Your old private key is stored, so you can still use it if you decide to generate a new private key.
  2. Yes, you can use both keys at the same time for different purposes.

You can manage your keys here.

Select your project and look under Key Id to find all the keys you have generated. You can also delete old or unused keys.
