No. A pitcher cannot leave the game with his team losing and end the game winning. There is a hypothetical where a pitcher is losing a game, the game gets suspended due to rain, the player then gets traded to the other team, and he pitches the resumed game and ends up winning. However, rules of Baseball might prevent him playing in a game he'd started for the other team.

Yes. In the early days of baseball this was a common thing to have hapen. There was even a pitcher that pitched a double header and won both by shutout. His name was Ed Reulbach.
Wilbur Wood in 1973 for the Chicago White Sox was the last pitcher to start both games of a doubleheader.
Not only has it been done in MLB, but (on occasion), a pitcher has WON both games -- and once the pitcher had a shutout IN BOTH GAMES.
