Yes (at those power levels), but your lights won't be as bright as they
could be. The voltage drop through the original wires & switches isn't
enough to harm the components, but does reduce the voltage to the
headlights, making them dimmer.

JC Whitney still sells (AFAIK) a dual headlight relay with integrated fuses.
If you want circuit breakers instead, you could buy the kind that are
designed to plug into a AGC fuse holder. The instructions with my relay
were for adding sealed beam headlights to a Model A Ford !
