1. John can't sing, nor can I.
2. John can't sing, neither can I.

3. John can't sing, and nor can I.
4. John can't sing, and neither can I.

5. John can't sing and nor can I.
6. John can't sing and neither can I.

Which ones are correct?

And and Nor are coordinating conjunctions. Is "And nor am I" correct, since two coordinating conjunctions are together?
