Are all mtb chain rivet extractors the same or are there different ones to use for different types of bikes or mtb chains?

I'm assuming you're talking about chain breaker tools here.
You may run into trouble trying to use an old tool on a new 10 or 11-speed chain, but apart from that you should be OK.
Oh, keep in mind that there's a huge difference in quality between different brands. Noname breakers, particularly as parts of multi-tools, are often simply too poorly made to work well.

Does it matter how big is the chaine for a bmx bike?
There are two measurements to a chain, width and length. Most BMX use what's known as an 1/8" chain. Length, sometimes given in no of links will vary from bike to bike. If two otherwise identical bikes are set up with different sprockets and drivers they will need different chain lengths. Bike chains are always sold too long, and then cut to size. On top of that chains stretch, so the same number of links in a worn chain won't be the same as that number of links from a new chain.
