yes, diatomic and polyatomic ions can both be expressed in electron dot diagrams, or as your reffer to them; Lewis structures.
The arrangement of atoms in molecules and polyatomic ions can be depicted using Lewis dot structures or molecular models. In Lewis dot structures, elements are represented by their chemical symbols, and dots or lines are used to show the valence electrons. In molecular models, physical representations like balls and sticks are used to represent atoms and their bonds in three-dimensional space. These depictions help us visualize and understand the structure and properties of molecules and ions.

Two equivalent Lewis structures are necessary to describe the bonding in O3. These structures involve adding a double bond between each pair of oxygen atoms in alternate arrangements.

The two polyatomic Ions do not differ.

There are three equivalent Lewis structures for CO32.
Gilbert Newton Lewis
They are called Lewis Dot Diagrams because of the man who came up with the idea, Lewis Gilbert
Lewis was shy, and moody, Clark was loud and outgoing.

SeBr2O only has one lewis structure. you can fill all of the lone pairs without having to use a double bond (double bonds are why there are equivalent lewis structures)
On the Lewis and Clark Expedition, it was William Clark who concentrated chiefly on the drawing of maps but both Lewis and Clark are credited for drawing about 140 maps during the journey. Inititially it was Lewis who spent time consulting maps and books and conferring with Thomas Jefferson at his library in Monticello before the expedition.
Lewis structures are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule. They are also called Lewis dot diagrams, electron dot diagrams, and electron dot structures. See the link below for Lewis structure.
