It depends on the pool. Most competitive swim meets take place in 8-lane or 10-lane pools. Meets taking place in 10-lane pools typically fill the entire pool for the preliminary heats. In other words, all 10 lanes are taken up by swimmers. However, in the semi-finals and finals, only 8 lanes are used. This keeps the two outside lanes empty.

However, meets can take place in pools of any size. There can be 6-lane pools or 4-lane pools. It is not always the same.

Do you stay in the same lane in 400 m race?

You do switch lanes in the 400 meter dash. At my school at the 50 meter mark is when you start to move into lane one and two and by the 100 meter mark you really should be in the lane one or you will be running longer.
