Can you tune BMW with BimmerCode?

Yup, they don't interfere. BM3 is ECU tuning, while BimmerCode is programming other modules on the car. For common features like ASD, I assume BM3 & BimmerCode are just making the same coding changes to that specific entry in that module. Yup, they don't interfere.

Does using BimmerCode void warranty?

The answer is, it depends. Google and read about the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. In short, if you code feature A in some manner other than the OEM condition and something fails related to feature A, and BMW knows that you made an unauthorized alteration, they may exclude that repair from warranty.
