Can I use Badd9 instead of B?
Yes, almost anywhere: Badd9 is B with C♯ added, which gives it a brighter, more open ring.

No. Badd9 keeps the major third, D♯; Bsus2 drops it and has C♯ in its place.
What is the difference between Badd9 and B9?
B9 also has the minor seventh, A; Badd9 adds the ninth with no seventh at all.
