I sure think so!! I think Jesus wants us all to be friends and we will be when we go to Heaven!!!
In most cases yes, but the Bible also says not to associate with the unrepentant person. 1 Corinthians 5:11, NASB: But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any so-called brother if he is a sexually immoral person, or a greedy person, or an idolater, or is verbally abusive, or habitually drunk, or a swindler—not even to eat with such a person.

I don't. Being a Christian isn't all about unity, fun, and rainbows. Being a Christian means keeping your faith through adversity and persecution. Just look at how every disciple was persecuted along with Jesus himself. How are you to claim your faith is strong if it's never been tested? How is your faith supposed to be tested if we're all friends and having a great time?
Your questions are TWO statements combined -
To get along... yes.
To be friends: not necessarily; although I believe to see a call for tolerance when in doubt.
Nope. He certainly didn't get along with the mainstream religious leaders of the time. Dude chased them around with a whip lol

Jesus commands us to love one another; to love our neighbors and live in peace with one another. That doesn’t necessarily equate to friendship. Scripture also tells us to “not walk in the council of the wicked, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of mockers.” I believe Jesus wants us to do good for others, but also be discerning about who we ally ourselves with.
if friends means no disagreement then we cannot be friends.
If Jesus really existed, he's dead now and beyond caring.
He wants us to not be sinful and to worship God His father.
I don’t know if it’s that simple but there’s no reason to say no.
I think the same thing to but I just want to say y’all have a good day
Ideally, that would be the plan.
