Can I update my game on Google Play with CooconIO APK if I the game was wrapped with IntelXDK earlier?
No you can't. There are two reasons (at least I know only two). First of all CooconIO has no option to edit app version (this is actually a good thing, cause CooconIO does it for you automatically, where with IntelXDK you had to remember to increment the ID before you publish your APK). And the second reason is that there are different sign certificates and Google Play refuses to accept the APK with different certificate.
So if you are on alpha/beta stage, you can always remove the app from Google Play and create it again. If your app is released to production already then it's too late. At least I don't know the way to do so.
Actually you can edit the App Version <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink"> Please see here: https://shatter-box.com/document/apk-version-code/

Does AdMob and IAP work with CooconIO?
Yes. However you will have to use their plugins. It's absolutely not a big deal. You simply download their C2 plugins and implement it the same way you do it with C2 AdMob and CordovaIAP plugin. Worth to mention that CooconIO works with both managable and non-managable products for IAP and both banners and interstitals for Ads.
You also can use the built-in admob plugin by scirra and the Cordova AdMob plugin by 
cranberrygame instead. But yes, to avoid any conflicts it's recommended to use the offical plugin. But you can use AdMob and mopub ID's with it. Moreover you can use any network (chartboost, ...) aslong you have added it to your mopub dashboard.
The same applies to the CocoonInApp plugin <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink"> You also can use the one provided by cranberrygame (like all other cordova plugins).

Is it hard to switch to CooconIO?
I really thought I'll spend much more time to understand everything but I managed to get everything in one day. However I folowed this ebook https://www.scirra.com/store/ebooks/qui ... ebook-1893 and I recommend you to buy it as well if you want to work with CooconIO. It's very cheap and explains a lot.
Thank you very much for linking my ebook! I really appreciate it that it helped you <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile"> Thank you!
With all other points I have to agree with you. As far as I know ludei works on it to exclude some permissions, but I guess the most will remain, sorry for that.
Let me know if you have any questions, I'll give my best to help you out!
Regards
