Yes: Yes, you can get many types of STDs with simple skin-to-skin contact including genital to genital and even hand to genital. One can be infected with an std with simple skin contact or contact with infected body secretions. Penetration is not necessary.

Yes: Oral transmission and contact with open lesions are possible. Sex play often gets sex fluids in right locations for transmission (and pregnancy) risk. Use caution. If concerned, get tested.
