Can the three elements of the CoI framework be integrated and applied to support the professional learning community and 21st-century teaching among teachers? From my reading, CoI is more geared toward students' learning, although the teaching presence element focuses on the teacher.

Most definitely. In fact, we used the CoI framework for professional development when Dr. Norm Vaughan did his doctorate on the subject. The following will provide an introduction to this work.
Vaughan, N., & Garrison, D. R. (2005). Creating cognitive presence in a blended faculty development community. Internet and Higher Education, 8(1), 1-12.
Also check out the new edition of our book:

Also, please follow-up with Norm for more insight.

There is extensive research where faculty have used the CoI framework to design online learning experiences. Finally, I am not clear as to your question regarding different courses. the framework ...

According to the diagram and theory, each can have differing influence on the educational experience (dependent variable however it is defined). Off the top I suppose that the correlation among the presences will depend on the ...
