Can you put animals who aren't predators to each other in the same enclosure if they're not zoopedia listed enrichment species? Or is it only those species who can share habitats without stress and problems?
Do any animals do ok in with non-enrichment species?

There are several threads on this topic, recently this one
You can place animals together, that are not listed as benefiting in the zoopedia.
Yes sometimes you can even place animals from different continents together...if you choose plants that are used on both. On the other hand in some situations stress occurs even with animals from the same region.
As mentioned in the other thread, there are several tables around that show a compatibility which are in my opinion far from perfect and some have flaws.
So my advice is to test it yourself in a sandbox.

I usually do a djungle habitat in most of my zoo's, usually with Bongo, Nyala, Tapir and Okapi. In some zoo's I also have both the tortoises in that habitat + warthogs, and in some the Anteaters. (Never tried the Anteater and tortoises in the same habitat) and you can make it so that all of them are at 100% happiness, both with terrain and plants.
