I figure the answer to both of these is "No" but I'm having trouble finding direct references.
Just to be absolutely unamiguous you _can_ use Draw Power as part of a Q&D Enchantment process.

They do it all the time in the "Merlin" worlds of the Infinte Worlds setting. See Gurps Technomancer (a 3e book still available as a pdf) for an extended example.

I've never seen Steal Power used at all, probably due to beign limited to settings with cinematic energy storage tech. That is TL9+ and probably TL9^+. You can do Draw Power starting around TL6.
