Can a doorbell low voltage converter share another circuit's breaker by both wires plugging into it? Or should a single wire go into the breaker but split it inside the panel using a wire but? Or does it require its own whole breaker/circuit?

It doesn't require its own breaker because it's a low load.
A breaker terminal shouldn't have multiple wires within it. Take the doorbell out, add a pigtail, and wire nut it together.
