Can I do the main story at the same time as morrowind story?

Hoping someone can please help.

Can I start on the main story line quest line without abandoning the morrowind storyline?

Will I lose anything by starting the main story and will I be able to get back easily via wayshrines?

May be an dumb question, but I just want to be sure before travelling and beginning the main story.

Thanks!

    You can do both at the same time and won't lose your progress in any other quests.

    If you want to activate the main story just head back into the core game zones and you should be approached by an NPC which triggers the start of the main story.

    You'll also be able to travel freely to any shrine you've unlocked previously.

    Also, note that once you discover the Harborage, you can travel directly to it, free from any Wayshrine, so this can help with bouncing back and forth.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Not unless you're playing on two different accounts at the same time.

    On a more serious note, you can have as many active quests as you want (I'm not sure if there's a limit or not but if there is it's really high and you shouldn't have to worry about it)

    25 quests max active at one time
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    Yeah, it's 25 quests, and you can reach that more quickly than you think. :) Add up main quest, a few overland things, DLC quests, then undaunted dailies, crafting dailies and master writs. Bam. :)

    besides the main quests is there really no general direction I should follow while questing, its pretty much just pick a zone and clear it then on to the next.

    Oh there's tons of quests besides the main quest. Many of them are indeed just scattered across the zones ("side quests"). Like one of the hints in the loading screen says, "Sometimes it pays to just go exploring. Pick a direction and start wandering." :) But there's numerous "guided quests" too.

    Each faction has a big quest line that begins in the respective starting city. Auridon (Vulkhel Guard) for Aldmeri Dominion. Those consists of a number of quests in each zone, and when you complete one, there'll be a quest giver sending you to the next. For Aldmeri (the only one I've completed so far), you go through Auridon, then Grahtwood, Greenshade, Malabal Tor and finally Reaper's March.

    You COULD indeed just pick a zone and do the quests there, but it's recommended to do the faction quests in the intended sequence.

    The Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, Orsinium and Morrowind DLCs also have quest lines that you can initiate by accepting the invitation from your Collectibles screen. Like with the faction quests, you'll be sent from quest to quest there.
    Kind regards,
