What kind of oil to use in a vw swing axle transmission on a 1970 VW Beetle?

A 1970 VW Beetle will have what is referred to as the IRS transaxle not the earlier swing axle used up until 1968. Any good gear lube made for use in manual transmissions will work, an 85W/140 for example. I have used a Slick 50 manual transmission additive in mine that helps smooth the shifting noticeably.

Can you tow a 1974 super beetle without disconnecting the drive shafts?
There is no drive shaft to speak of in a Beetle. The Axle is part of the Transmission so the engine bolts directly to the transmission/axle. I don't know if you can tow an Automatic. It's ok to tow a manual bug. Just make sure it's out of gear.
What type of gear lube do you use in a 1967 volkswagen beetle?

Will a 1974 beetle trans-axle fit a 1962 beetle?
Not without an incredible amount of modification. 1962 Beetles use "swing arm" suspension. The transmission has the axles attached through U-joints. At the wheel end, there is a spring plate with a hole in it for the axles to pass through. 1974 Beetles have "independent rear suspension." There is a constant-velocity joint on both ends of each axle, there's both the spring plate and a diagonal stiffener, and there's a bracket on the frame to hold the stiffener.
