Are the twin turbochargers in the Ecoboost engine fed by engine oil for lubrication?

With most turbocharged engines, you don't want to shut them down immediately after a heavy load. The best practice is to let it idle for a while to let the turbo cool down, and the lubrication to circulate. So it may be better to let such an engine idle instead of turning it on and off more often.
