Yea, both can be used to indicates events/actions/feelings pairs that happens at the time.
既。。。又 works the same way too.
However, be careful with 一边。。。一边,because besides indicating timing, 边 can also be referring to locations(sides).
For example, 外面一边在下雨,一边在闪电。
If the speaker is referring to timing, then it means it rains and lightnings at the same time.
However, if the speaker is referring to the locations, then it means on one side, it is raining (only), and on the other side, it is lightning (only).
hope it helps : )
