No, can only go from light to dark with rit dye.

You can use Durakote, a two part paint which comes in all sorts of colors including a number of dark earth colors. They have Flat Dark Earth to match Magpul

Yup, can only go darker.  Just today I dyed a bunch of foliage furniture in a 2-tone blue on a .22 AR for the kids (and me ).

Edit: the best base is FDE, it is the lightest and will bring out the best colors, I wish I would have used FDE instead of foliage, but it still came out great.
