If it’s a brand new infection orally, then the answer is yes because your body has not had time to build antibodies against it.
If it’s an oral infection that you’ve had for quite some time, then the answer is no because your body has had time to build antibodies against it.
You can give herpes to someone else either orally by kissing or genitally by performing oral sex, if they don’t already have the same strain as you.

It is possible to spread the herpes virus by this means. A vast majority of people have the HSV-1 virus orally (i.e. cold sores, canker sores). I would recommend against picking at any sores to prevent the spread of the virus, once your infected…. you have it for life. If this recently happened and no symptoms have manifested I would recommend heading to your local GNC and picking up an antiviral and start Living healthy (vitamins, proper eating, and exercising) to boost you immune system. Constantly washing your hands is a good idea as well.

It’s possible but not likely. Cold sores are contagious but she would have to touch the sore then with in seconds touch her genitals. Herpes doesn’t last for long periods of when it’s away from the body. She could how ever give you oral herpes on your genitals if she gives you oral sex while she has a cold sore.
Tell her not to mess with the cold sore and use come cream like Abreva or Lipactin, applying them regularly to the sore should help it heal faster. If she does have to touch the sore then she should try to wash or sanitize her hands after touching it.
