Right, they can't perform any special things they'd be otherwise cabable during the Night. But sure they can be lynched. Being an NG or BG is a Night-assignment and it doesn't make others unable to lynch them during the Day. And similarly; a gang can lynch their captain. They just have to choose a new one on the next Day (and be without a Captain & his guards during the Night).

Also, if one of them happens to be a wolf, does that wolf count towards the number of wolves for kills? (That is, if there are 3 wolves and one is a BG, do the wolves get two kills or one?)
Here I'd like to make an exception to the "logicalness" of the rules and say that the wolves would get the number of kills their total numbers give them right to, unregarding their possible Nightly roles. Otherwise the "villagers" could especially in the later stages of the game block the Nightly kills entirely (even by accident) and then make the logical deductions too easily.

Also, can a wolf who is a a BG, NG, or captain still talk with the other wolves?
Okay, this I hadn't thought of... I'd actually like to say that they shouldn't be able to communicate with others if on duty by Night.

Which bring forwards a question of what to do if all the remaining wolves / the last remaining wolf is "on duty" during the Night and there are no "free wolves" to make the kill? As a backbone-reaction I'd say we'd come up with the wolves with a kind of a "pecking order" between them and in such a case the highest ranking wolf would decide the kill. Possibly...
