Yes, for the first one. You can add enough 1's at the beginning of any sequence of digits ABC...Z, you produce a number that satisfies both conditions. But no, for the second one: a computer-aided search helps show that there are no 24, 34, 35, or 48 digits solutions, just for numbers with 50 digits or less.
