Say my buddy is interacting with something and there is an investigate option, but his chars intelligence is not up to par, can my char attempt the skill check without him cancelling the interaction and me initiating it again?

Pathfinder already solved this problem, any time there is a skill check in dialogue it automatically uses the skill check of the character in the party with the highest bonus, no matter who is “talking”, and mousing over the selection will show you whose skill check you’re using. It’s pretty seamless and it works because the party engages in conversations as a unit, just like a real tabletop party does. You usually have a main character that’s driving the specific conversation but party members interject or argue frequently.
