ACARS
Yes.
They can and alot more, dependant on version/software/company preferences/costs.
Ours (at least 10 years ago) were sending lat / long, alt, TAS, fuel burn, fuel remaining, eta at next waypoint, and mantenance codes. I cant recall how often we had it set to transmit. I think we opted for each waypoint, but we could have it transmit every minute if we wanted.

It is really up to the company, ACARS transmissions can get expensive, it all software based. To my knowledge a variety of ACMS data can be transmitted if programmed to do so. We can also limit or expand on received data w&b etc.
