Yes and yes.
Sending sats to themselves is basically what people do when they "rebalance" channels (and not loop/swap out/in sats from off- to on-chain, or Liquid).
Opening a channel to your 2nd node does only connect your 2 nodes, if none of them has any other channels, you're in the same position as before.
