In a lever action rifle? No, it's not recommended. .38 Special rounds are compatible with .357 revolvers because the cylinders aren't a formed chamber which requires proper headspacing. The .357 lever action rifle, however, does have a formed chamber designed specifically for the longer .357 Magnum cartridge. With a .38 Special round loaded into it, it won't achieve proper headspacing, causing a potentially catastrophic situation.

.357 Magnum and .38 Special (to include +P and +P+ loadings).
No. They both use a different diameter bullet and the case is different. The .357 Sig case is a bottle-necked version of the .40 S&W case. The .357 mag is a longer version of the .38 Special.
Depends on model and condition- you did not share that, and we do not have enough info to answer.
