Yes and yes.

The oil light has a single wire that runs from the pump up to the bulb on one side, and a 12 volt source for the other side.

The gen light has a single wire that runs from the A terminal of the gen up to the bulb on one side, and a 12 volt source on the other.

You can use the same 12 volt wire for both, with a Y-connector.

Stock wire colors are orange for the 12 volt, tan for the gen lite, green for the oil light.
