If I have a unit in a transport that disembarks, can another unit then embark on the now empty transport in the same turn?
Also can a unit disembark from a vehicle then embark on a different vehicle in the same turn?

Page 78 Embarking and Disembarking answers your questions.

Ok but nothing stops a unit from embarking onto a transport that has just had a unit disembark off it

And there is your answer to Question #1

it seems you're right, actually. I was picking the rulebook up to find the exact location of the quote (and in my infinite wisdom, was looking in the index for what page I might find "page 78" on) and I can't find anything that says that you can't.
I've also noticed you can move a vehicle normally if you embark onto it, wheras I always thought you could only move 6". must have been an old rule stuck in my mind. this makes donated dedicated transports much better, as you can embark, move 12" and flat out.

my burnas are going to have a hayday!

Its a good tactic, just remember since burnas cant snap fire you would not be allowed to shoot them any turn you move over 6 inches in a vehicle.

As for number 2, there is an interesting word within the Restriction on disembarking then re-embarking: Voluntarily...
In theory, the Unit could disembark from a transport that wrecks itself on terrain before embarking into another Transport and continue along their way....

Page 78 even specifically mentions forced to disembark if their Transport is destroyed, so this is covered. (Albeit not in the order you presented, but it is covered).

You are right, I did it in reverse for some reason:
First you embark them, then move normally, wreck and then disembark.
