I have ordered a set of transceiver with NRF24L01 from various vendors. (with and without external antenna)

Are they all compatible?

It tells that it supports 1 to 6 communication? But will transmitters from different vendors work with each other?

Yes, they are compatible. The functionality is determined by the chip, not by the surrounding components.

With some care the NRF24L01 is also compatible with the NRF24L01+, RF70, and RF73.

"It tells that it supports 1 to 6 communication? " - is that a question? - Yes, they all support 1:N communication (in datagram mode - no acknowledging/retransmission). They also support 6 receive 'channels' per chip.
