You need to be a bit more specific, are you trying to use stock VU stereo? The factory switches use resistance to tell the head unit which button is being pressed, so yeah of course you can use a VY wheel in your car, if stock unit you’ll need to adjust the resistance ladder to suit. If after market just find the option to map the functions if it has one

I have a aftermarket pioneer headunit one with apple car play and know it has the functionality to have steering wheel controls should I just run wiring to the two wires if the controls as they plug in different to a vu the VY wheel has the horn and controls in one plug for me

You should be able to use VY VZ buttons with the corresponding module to the headunit.

AFAIK all models will require the relative steering wheel control module to the headunit.

Aerpro likely make an iso cable for Pioneer to controls of your choice

I would of liked to Ute ISO to Pioneer but the original owners decided to completely cut the factory radio plugs off for both the radio controls and the radio plug itself so maybe I could re wire it to the new plugs themselves.

Hate it when people do that. You could wire it direct or find a wreck, grab the plug and match the colours

It’s easy enough to recrimp and put iso connectors back on. There are plenty on eBay. Cheap too.
