Yes. You can show this by SAS of two right triangles. Consider rectangle ABCD. AD and BC are the same length and AC and BD are the same length because opposite sides are congruent. The angles ADC and BCD are congruent since it is a rectangle and the angles are right angles. So the triangles ADC and BCD are congruent and their hypotenuses (the diagonals of the rectangles) are congruent.

Is a quadrilateral which must contain diagonals that are always congruent and must always have four 90 angles?

Yes, a quadrilateral that must contain diagonals that are always congruent and has four right angles is a rectangle. In a rectangle, the diagonals are equal in length, and all interior angles measure 90 degrees. A square, which is a special type of rectangle, also meets these criteria, but a rectangle does not have to be a square.
