Correct, if you use the same private key to create a new certificate it should have the same public key, hence this should not give any problem.

I'm using Tomcat as my server.
The remoteCertificateData is not equal to my localCertData.
But it's working when I'm using the same localCertData on Android.
What's the difference?
What is the file should I use on iOS?

Any reply to the below
