An acquaintance and I like to publish an iOS app to the Apple App Store. Can he enroll into the iOS Developer Programm ($99/year) with his AppleID and invite my AppleID as a member, then make me an admin, so that I am able to develop/ publish and maintain everything without his help? Or do I need to enroll, too? Thanks for your answer!

You can do that. Instructions for that can be found in the apple developer guides

Yes and then add you and your email as an administrator to give you the same rights. – Major Feb 03 '15 at 11:00

You can be invited to join to another account. What you need to have in mind is the following.
You definitely can by invited to be part of a team as developer and manage apps. There is anyhow some considerations: Two kind of users needed to develop and publish an App Store App.
Developer Account: Required to upload apps, create profiles, certificates, etc. iTunesConnect account: Required to create apps, user management, etc.
When somebody enrols on iOSDeveloperProgram gets both users with the same login, but if you want to be invited you need to be invited both (this can be an issues if you own some other itunesconnect account becouse must be unique)

My acquaintance also needs an iTunesConnect account, which is used to publish apps? Can we both access the same iTunesConnect account and change i. e. the app description by using both your AppleIDs? – moobi Feb 03 '15 at 14:05

Yes, the one who enrols will have an iTunesConnect account wich is what you need to create and edit apps. If your acquaintance invites you to manage their itunesconnect team account you will be able yo edit and create apps the same way he will – dminones Feb 03 '15 at 14:55

iTunesConnect is for publish apps. Developer Account is for developing apps. Are you mixing these two? – moobi Feb 03 '15 at 15:56

True, but I'n not mixing these becouse in order to upload a build from XCode you need to have a developer account (wich could or not be the same that the used in iTunesConnect) – dminones Feb 03 '15 at 17:31
