if by 'bridge' you mean wirelessly connect the two, then its unlikely.
Does either router say that it can act as a wireless client? if so,
figure out how to get it into that mode. Note that once in client mode,
it probably can't also be an Access point for other clients. For that
you need a range extender.

Yes, but you don't want to do that (ethernet to internet port) as it
will make your network very complicated for no good reason. You should
connect the two together via ethernet ports on both, and disable the
DHCP server in one of the two units.
