No. Only the President of the United States, or the Vice-President, if the President is incapacitated, has the Constitutional authority to issue "executive orders." The President is the head of the Executive branch of government.

No, the US Supreme Court only reviews Executive Orders under its appellate jurisdiction, so someone would have to initiate a case challenging the order in US District Court first. If the decision of the District Court judge is appealed, the case typically goes to the US Supreme Court on direct appeal (skipping the Circuit Court), under the theory that both sides will fight an unfavorable decision until the Supreme Court makes a final decision, anyway.

The Supreme Court never reviews Executive Orders on its own authority.
