So, I can use tomar..... como and tomar.... por , two forms are both correct and can be interchangable,right?

No. You should only use tomar por. A variant, which I gave you above is "dar por tonta". But do not use "tomar como" because it's a literal translation from the English. - francobollo, Dec 9, 2012

Tomar como is not correct. It lends itself to ambiguity with the other meaning of Tomar (to drink). Tomar como un cosaco (To drink like a fish). Just use por and you'll be fine. - francobollo, Dec 9, 2012
