Can I log in with my actual account (of lemmy.ml) to other communities or federations or whatever they're called instead of having to create a account for every site (like lemmy.dbzer0.com)? (lemmy.ml)

No, but normally you shouldn't have to. You can still see and interact with all communities on the instances your instance is federated with. You'd only need to create a new account on an instance that has been defederated from your "home" instance (for example you account is on lemmy.ml but you want to interact with beehaw.org)

I keep hearing conflicting reports of whether beehaw has defederated from lemmy.ml. I don't actually think this is the case. I've been posting comments in beehaw communities just fine and another user told me lemmy.ml isn't on beehaw's defederation list.
