Is the 1996 B-2500 full size Dodge van set up for electric brake controller?

Electric brake controllers (for trailer towing) can be added to any vehicle however, I have not ever wired one so I can't advise you on that. There should be instructions with the controller, unless it's used, in which case I would do a google search for info on that.

1999 Ford Explore All the light bulbs are working but my left brake light isn't Would it be the brake light switch if the right brake light is still working?

No. I am assuming that you first replaced the bulb? If you did replace the bulb, then I would check to see if you are getting power to the bulb socket. If no power is getting to the socket, you then need to find the break in the electric lines going to the socket.
