If you pitch a complete game, and it's a save situation in the ninth, would you get a win and a save. Not sure, hmm. Otherwise, I'd think it's pretty rare. Just sayin'.
No. Save sotuation are determined by score when you enter game. If you enter the game in 8th up 1 run then your team scores 10 runs in bottom half and you go back out to pitch 9th, you will get a save even though your team is up 11 runs now because it was save situation when you entereed.

Likewise, yiu cant create your own save situation

If it wasnt save criteria when you entered game, it cant later becime save for you although it can for another if they enter.
I google deep searched it, and, it has happened a number of times. Most recently, Alex Colome did in in 2019. Crazy, would have thought it was really rare.
Id think itd be rare now adays, but in the olden days, they used to schedule doubleheaders instead of them just being to make up cancelled or postponed games.

Also in olden days they had less reservations and caution about throwing putchers all the time so it was probably more common for a putcher to throw both games.

What colone and granillo did i dont expect to happen too much moving forward with how the game and caution of arms has shifted.
