Yes same rules apply when purchasing a foreign ETF. Just need to find a distributor platform that provides it.

Do take note of the withholding tax like your equity investments. If they pay more dividends, you pay more tax, this is especially concerning for distributing bond funds.

Apart from one being an ETF and the other being an index fund, how else is VUSA different from VANUIVI (Vanguard U.S. 500 Stock Index Fund, which Endowus' CPF-enabled Lion Global Infinity feeds into)?
