Depends. They will need a visa according to their nationality, so they needed one before, they'll need one now.

No, they can't If they have only UK visit visa.
Assuming they are not from visa waver country, then they require schengen visa.

so a visitor from India or Bangladesh has to apply for a schengen visa first ? Before they arrive in the UK?
