Is it okay to use semi-empirical methods to optimize structures if I perform high-level energy calculations?
I generally try to use the most accurate methods that my resources will allow me to use, within a reasonable budget for the desired accuracy.
If you're interested in 20 water molecules or 60 atoms (...

Comparison between the ordering of Molecular Orbital coefficients between Gaussian and PySCF
Answer for basis function conventions:
What you've concluded is correct, but there are more rules for a general basis set (e.g. def2-TZVP, cc-pVTZ):
(1) The order of MO coefficients with angular ...
