Muscle Sliver's ability does give itself +1/+1.

2021-03-19wotc

Because damage remains marked on a creature until the damage is removed as the turn ends, nonlethal damage dealt to a Sliver may become lethal if Muscle Sliver leaves the battlefield during that turn.

Abilities that Slivers grant, as well as power/toughness boosts, are cumulative. However, for some abilities, like flying, having more than one instance of the ability doesn't provide any additional benefit.
