I have a question about the conjunction “mentre”… is it equally correct to say “Io mangio la pizza mentre mio fratello mangia la pasta” as well as “Mentre mio fratello mangia la pasta, il mangio la pizza”? – In other words, can I start the sentence with “mentre”? Thanks for your great service!

Yes, that is correct.
You can start with “mentre” if you’d like. The two sentences mean exactly the same thing.
