Yes to both. Those are the right keys, and the key mappings are in VO Utility > Braille. Choose your display from the table (if you have more than one paired, or ever have done so) and then choose "change commands". Of course, these assignments have nothing to do with any Windows screen readers you use, and you'll need to disconnect VO before any other programs can use the Apex.
