Can a Steam Tank's Engineer Commander and steam cannon both shoot during the same turn?

Yes. The Engineer Commander doesn't fire the steam cannon, imagine there's a (very hot and bothered) crew hidden away inside the Steam Tank whose endeavours leave the Engineer Commander free to fire their own weapon.

Before a Steam Tank charges, can it use the Steam Power special rule to increase its Movement?

No. The Steam Power special rule can be used by a Steam Tanks, a model that cannot march, instead of marching. In other words, in instances where most models or units would increase their movement by marching, a Steam Tank can instead make use of the Steam Power special rule. Charging is not such an instance.
