Probably: Current recommendations are that every adult should be vaccinated. People who were previously infected with COVID-19 may be in a lower priority group for receiving the new vaccine. Reference: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/vaccine-benefits/facts.html

Yes: "The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends people should get the vaccine about 90 days after the initial infection because there is evidence reinfection is unlikely during the 3 months following a COVID-19 infection."
