For example, trezor and ledger uses address starting with 3(segwit-in-p2sh), they can send bitcoins to bc1 address?

If you use the Trezor or Ledger with Electrum, then yes.

If you try to spend the exact same UTXO's using Trezor's or Ledger's web interface, then likely not yet.

For a trezor: seeds, private keys and derivation paths are generated by the hardware so. No to both as both will work from the same system.

I think they should be able to receive from bech32 however, especially of you use electrum.


Every wallet can receive from bech32

Every wallet that has been programmed to accept it can. There are some that won't for example, wallets that might not currently be in development for obvious reasons like multibit. Also, I'm not sure whether the Andreas Schildbach (not sure how you spell his name) Bitcoin wallet for Android recognises bech32 addresses or not as it does get updated every so often but I'm not sure entirely what the updates bring each time as there isn't normally an update log with it (unless I'm looking in the wrong place).
