Yes. Since the grounding points are at the same voltage level there is no risk in doing that.

yes all you are doing is i assume adding a new cord on the dryer? if so 2 hot legs make 220 and one for the neutral or white wire, the ground can just attach to the chaise ground

Take this green wire mounted to the dryer and strap it to the cold water pipe on your washer drain box...
