Can you apply for a personal and business Amex revolver at same time?

Or does one of those need to be a charge card? I'm planning to apply for the personal Delta Platinum and either the business Delta Reserve or biz Marriott. Would one of the biz cards need to be a charge card or while they let me apply for a personal and biz revolver at same time?

Yes, you can apply for both. Some folks have submitted both applications in sequence, but there are instances where you have to wait before you can submit a 2nd one. My advice is to space your applications to prevent any potential processing delays on the 2nd one. AmEx is known to have a 5-day rolling period 'soft rule' when applying for 2 revolvers back-to-back, but it's unknown how strictly they enforce that. It's one of those YEMV situations.

My recollection is that things get confused if they are closer than 7 calendar days to each other and still pending. So I would apply for one, and then wait 7 calendar days, unless the first application is approved sooner.
