The answer to both questions is "yes".
Oracle's database, SQL*Net, precompilers, and other products have been available for IBM's MVS and OS/390 mainframe systems since 1986.
The precompiler itself runs only in TSO or batch. The applications it generates can be run under TSO, batch, CICS, or IMS/TM.
