Can I wear this jacket over a hoodie?

Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
Ensure the jacket is clean. Wash with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment designed for technical apparel if the issue persists.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Check the zipper track for debris. Gently clean the teeth with a small brush. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth to improve smoothness.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
This indicates high humidity and/or intense activity. Open the two-way zip for better ventilation. If possible, remove an inner layer of clothing.
