Can I use database intended from one programming language to another language?

Question

ex. database in vb6 and use this particular database to php

Answer 1

Of course you can use one database and connect it to two different programming languages.

It's like running two programs running php to access the database.

I believe a lot of the servers actually​ use this technique to analyse the type of data they are receiving

Answer 2
