Can visas be stamped in an old passport, provided that I have a new one?

No, they will not stamp an expired passport. It’s OK for previously granted visas to exceed the validity of a passport, but no country will stamp in a visa that starts after the passport expired. For example, Indonesia’s tourist visa requirements state:

Passport still valid at least 6 months from the date of entry

Malaysia won’t be a problem, Ukrainian citizens don’t need a visa in advance and their passport stamp is quite small, so they’ll squeeze it in somewhere in your current passport. Singapore requires a visa, but it’s an e-visa and the entry stamp is even smaller, so no problem there either.

Your problem is likely going to be Indonesia, which requires an advance visa and uses full-page stickers for its visas. So you’ll need at least one completely empty page in your current passport for this.
