Oil pressure and level are different concepts, so yes.

I reckon really low oil level would result in really low pressure.

In my experience on my 91 GTP (3.4) a low oil situation doesn’t trigger a warning. Low oil pressure will but only when it’s low enough the engine is getting starved and close to causing damage. You can have low oil pressure but have the correct amount of oil.  Not sure about a 94 though. I’m on OBD1 and I ive never came across an oil level sensor.  Do you have an oil leak?
