[EDIT] Maybe it's useful after all this time to give a more complete and uniform answer to both of the questions asked, by referring to Theorem 3.4(i) in Springer's 1974 paper on regular elements of finite reflection groups here. In your situation, a Weyl group or other finite Coxeter group (= finite real reflection group) acts on a real euclidean space, which can be complexified to deal with eigenvalues. Springer denotes an arbitrary complex reflection group by $G$, which includes your groups.
The answer "yes" to Question 1 looks(or similarly the answer to Question 2) is clear from the classification of finite Coxeter groups (which include the Weyl groups along with non-crystallographic groups of type $ I_2(m), H_3, H_4$ of ranks 2, 3, 4). The numbers you call "fundamental invariants" are usually just called the degrees and were worked out long ago by Coxeter and others. (There is an exposition in Chapter 3 of my 1990 text on reflection groups, along with a table of degrees.) None of this concerns root systems or Lie algebras directly, just the theory of finite real reflection groups (= finite Coxeter groups). I've added to your tags accordingly.
Even more is true: the nonBut Springer's result provides a quick uniform proof without case-crystallographic groups are embedded in certain Weyl groups of type $A,D,E$ and twice the rank byby-case verification. Here you consider a subtle "folding" procedure explained carefully in the 1988 paper"parabolic subgroup" of Oleg Shcherbak referenced in my book (which is apparently based on the Ph.D. thesis he was working on as V. Arnold's student in singularity theory at the time of his death in about 1986). Here the degrees occur in fact among those of the larger rank group involved, not just as divisors of those degrees. The same is true$G$ (usingconjugate to a standard parabolic subgroup generated by some of the classificationchosen simple reflections) for groups obtainedor more conventionally from Weyl groups withgenerally a single root length by "folding" their Dynkin diagrams, such as $F_4$ obtained from $E_6$. In all such cases the two groups share the same Coxeter number, which equalsreflection subgroup corresponding in the largest degree ofWeyl group case to a homogenous invariant polynomial among the generators of the algebra of $W$pseudo-invariants.
Having observed this much empirically using the classificationLevi subgroup of an algebraic or Lie group, it is still a problem to approach your Question 2e. For this you'd need to look at the actual polynomial invariants, preferably from a uniform viewpointg. In the individual cases you might see some natural relationship between "basic" invariant polynomials: homogeneous ones generating the invariant algebra, whose degrees are uniquely determined and have the group order as product$A_2$ inside $G_2$. I haven't noticed relevant work in Call the literature, though that is quite scatteredsubgroup $H$ and involves some papers in the mathematical physics journals. Some references are indicated in the notes atnote that the endcomplexification of my Chapter 3, though I overlooked one thesis-related paper by Lee here. (This and related matters are discussed in some earlier questions at Math Overflowits natural reflection representation embeds naturally in connection with "polynomial invariantsthat of finite reflection groups"$G$.)
In the parallel case of "folded" Dynkin diagrams, the non-crystallographic groups So an eigenvalue for an element of type $H_3$ were studied in the 1979 paper by Sekiguchi and Yano here from the viewpoint of their embedding of$H$ $H_3$ into(giving a Weyl group of type $D_6$. In great detail, but with little verbal explanation, they explore the polynomial invariants ofnonzero eigenspace) is automatically an eigenvalue for the two groupssame element in $G$. Essentially what seems to happen here Any such eigenvalue is that after identifying pairs of vertices of the Coxeter graph appropriatelya (by "folding"), they can obtain 3 basic invariant polynomials from 6$d$th root of 1 for the larger groupsome $d \geq 1$.
In your situation, where for example in type $A_n$ one symmetric groupNow Springer shows (or product of such) is embedded in a larger symmetric group, it may be possibleapplying some fairly elementary algebraic geometry to relate the symmetrichypersurfaces defined by basic invariant polynomials in) that a natural way. More generally,given $d$th root $\zeta$ occurs as suggested in the comments, similar arguments should apply to "pseudo-Levi" types obtained by omitting one or more vertices from an extended Dynkin diagram. Againeigenvalue for some element of $G$ if and only if $d$ divides one of the degrees always divide. But I'm not sure how to carry out such a program, even case-by-caseof $G$.
