NimbostratusCSR for ssl certificates
Can the same CSR be used to get client ssl certificate and server ssl certificate from third party certificate authority. If not, then what is the process ?

So you generate a CSR and get it signed with the 3rd party. When creating the SSL profiles client or Server you can assign same public and private key. So there is no need to create multiple CSR's.

When you create a client SSL profile you are basically intercepting the SSL communications and acting as the server, so the client SSL profile should present the cert for the service the LTM is fronting.
When you create a server SSL profile you are proxying the client traffic, acting as the client, talking back to the server, so you do not need to add a specific cert to that profile - you just use the LTMs cert.
