I don't know but they all died with the chip implanted, so supposedly they're alive in the CoL. I think the two versions must already be or will be in the future connected to the same CoL.

The CoL did not exist until Jaha and ALIE created it over the three months Murphy was locked up. It was also completely unpopulated, hence the reason Jaha said he would help ALIE populate it.

Nope. They can't be different versions the same AI since the interface is different to start with. The closest comparison would be two completely different and independent operating systems. They can talk to each other if they have a common language and they can interact with each other but they need to have a connection established first, which they do not. Depending on the ALIE backpack, it might be as simple as plugging in ALIE 2.0 into ALIE 1.0's hardware that Jaha is carrying around.
