The answer to your 1st question is yes! Both differ in touch. You can push the acoustic by playing harder and extract more sound. The basic difference is the electric guitar needs an amplifier and the acoustic usually does not have amplification. An acoustic pre-amp can be fitted for amplification.

What would be a good guitar practice routine?
Pick out the chords to a song by ear. Learn a riff from a recording. Transcribe a solo by ear from your favorite player. Sing intervals, scales, arpeggios, or other musical devices.
