2 VMs on the same host, connected to the same port group?

If so, this is no different at all to the way they would communicate if they were physical machines on the same network rather than VMs.

You didn't answer my question, but on the assumption that the VMs have network connectivity to one another then this has nothing to do with ESXi.

Yes it will involve shared folders, see this: https://www.howtogeek.com/176471/how-to-share-files-between-windows-and-linux/
