...When there are two voices a second apart, with stems in opposite directions, do the same rules apply as for a chord with only one stem, i.e. the highest note always to the right? And which of the two notes is considered "lined up with the beat"?
No, just the opposite. With notes in two voices a second apart and opposing stems, the upper note is on the left and the lower on the right with the stems in line. The upper note is usually lined up with the beat. See Gardner Read, p. 71.
