RHEV has been rebranded several years ago to RHV. If you already have RHV I don't see why you would want to use oVirt to manage it instead of using RHV-M (downstream of ovirt-engine) but from a technical perspective it should work just fine.
2、 What relation between oVirt and RHEV?
RHV is downstream release of oVirt packaged by Red Hat. oVirt <https://ovirt.org/> is a community project, RHV is a Red Hat product with a defined lifecycle <https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/rhev> / support <https://access.redhat.com/support/> / documentation <https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.4/>.

I am not sure what exactly the OP had in mind, but generally speaking, I'd recommend to _not_ mix RHV and oVirt. Although they are very similar, there are small differences that might bite you. A recent example I ran into myself recently: I tried to restore on oVirt 4.4 an engine-backup taken on RHV (4.3, but it doesn't matter): RHV uses a different version of wildfly (JBOSS), from a different location, and it does that by including a conf file pointing at it. If you take a backup, it includes this conf file, so it's also restored on restore. So when you then try to start the engine this fails because it can't find wildfly in the configured location.
