Cold sores are herpes. So the answer is yes, you can get herpes in your mouth. HSV-1 or HSV-2 can cause herpes either orally or genitally. A rising number of genital herpes infections are from what was traditionally believed to be only an oral infection, by HSV-1. The virus does not know nor care which nerve ganglia cluster it is infecting. You can have HSV-1 orally or genitally. You can have HSV-2 orally or genitally.

Of course. Herpes Simplex I, commonly known as a cold sore.
The virus sits dormant in the trigemenal nerves, located on the side of your head. When the virus becomes active, it travels down one of the nerves, there's plenty of nerves there. Depending on what nerve it thumbs a ride on, will determine whether if it will appear on the upper lip, lower lip, inside your lip, outside your lip.
