•Yes you can; but, let me ask you
this question:
-If you applied the Coating, to have its
characteristics be the ones protecting
the vehicle's surfaces...why would you
want to defeat that purpose by covering
them up with a Wax?
•After all of the time, money, and efforts that
are spent on the processes involved in Coating
a vehicle...I sure would want all of the Coating's
characteristics to be fully realized. YMMV.

Yes...Once the new paint has fully cured.
Check with the painter for that necessary
amount of curing time.

You can certainly wax over a coating. You're wasting time and product as it won't last very long. You may get smears or streaking as the wax will stick in some areas and not in others. That being said, there are waxes designed to be put over coatings. I use on that is not sold here but I believe AG sells one? Ask whoever painted the car how long you need to wait before coating fresh paint.

If ever i will be using the exo coating and then i'll wax it with pinnacle or mother's pure carnuba. It's just that waxing became my hobby and i don't want to lose it.

Waste of time and it just risks marring the finish.
If you gotta top a coating with something, use a spray wax or sealant as a drying aid.

You won't lose the hobby. There are other things to keep you busy. Interior, wheels and tires come to mind.
Have you seen the crystal serum light and exo combo?
GTechniq EXO and CSL Kit
You can maintain it with this if you enjoy waxing.
GTechniq C2v3 Liquid Crystal
Other than that I would not bother with a carnuaba wax.

You really should wait about a month after a new paint job to apply any type of wax, sealant etc to let it finish curing and releasing all of its gases
