Are these all grammatically correct?
1. John can't sing, nor can I.
2. John can't sing, neither can I.
3. John can't sing and nor can I.
4. John can't sing and neither can I.

Hello Shinya Maki. I believe I answered this question a few days ago. 1,2 and 4 are correct. I was not sure about #3. Since then, Google has found several sites with "and nor" so it appears to be common. I have not found any grammar sites that say it is correct or incorrect.

Hello, Rusty.
Thank you very much for your comment. It really helps. I should have seen the question posted a few days earlier and your answer. Sorry to have trouble you.
Sincerely,
Shinya Maki
