Yes. There is only so much of it and scientists think it takes hundreds of thousands of years to form naturally. There are many theories to when we are going to run out, but I don't believe there is much of a consensus on that.

Can diesel and crude diesel be mixed and legally run on the highway?

Crude oil is not diesel fuel - it is crude oil, and you really do not want to run this through your engine. Pre-EPA2010 diesels and off-highway diesels are able to run off waste oil if so desired, but this requires pre-heating and straining of the oil (and this is oil which is already processed, not crude oil). Aside from that, such a mixture wouldn't be legal for any on-highway applications.
