Brake and ABS Dash lights are on

No. Think about the difference between disc and drum brakes. Disc brakes adjust for wear by moving the caliper piston out a miniscule amount with each bit of wear. Drum brakes adjust for wear with the mechanical adjuster that physically moves the shoes; the wheel cylinder isn't involved. So drum brake wear has no impact on the hydraulic fluid level.

I know on my car though, the clutch, and brake hydraulic fluid are all ran from the same master cylinder pump. It's one crazy octopus looking deal!
