Sure can! You should probably try to match the same relative size though.

The gauge looks to be either 16 or 18.

Any wire should do, there is minimal current on the wire.

Just make sure you get copper wire and not aluminum. Some of the cheap stuff you see at "bargain" locations can be aluminum.

there is no current to speak of that flows through the VSS. 18 gauge wire should be more than sufficient.
