Can you use a 120 volt bulb in a 125 volt lamp?

No, it is not safe. The lamp is rated for a certain voltage, 125 volts, and supplying 240 volts to it would exceed design safety margins. It is not just a case of changing the bulb. It would be a different story if the lamp itself were rated for 240 volts, but that's not what the question said.

Can a 220 circuit breaker run a 120 light bulb?

Yes. The 125V is the rating of the bulb, which indicates the voltage it was manufactured to withstand. The voltage it is actually operated at does not have to be precisely 125V; As a matter of fact the voltage coming from your wall socket can vary from as low as 100VAC all the way to above 125 VAC. So, screw that bulb in and light up your world!
