Yes, and yes.

Wait a second, see how little I know...

If crank is at 6 BTDC and cams are at zero and I have woodruff keys then I am 12 degrees...

If I am using woodruff keys then start with crank and cams all at zero and add the keys ..that would get them to six (except that all I can find are 5s- close enough?). A tooth on each cam is too much?

Keys are available in 4 offsets:

0.7mm [621 991 04 67] 4deg. crank
0.9mm [621 991 02 67] 6.5 deg.
1.1mm [621 991 01 67] 8deg.
1.3mm [621 991 00 67] 10deg.

Choose 6.5deg; chain and sprocket wear will negate the 1/2 deg. difference.
