Consecutive timeouts cannot be granted after time has expired in the 4th qtr or OT and before any OT starts.

5-12-3
Successive time-outs shall not be granted after expiration of playing time for the fourth quarter or any extra period.

As for the FTs, as long as there's a chance the game can be won or tied, the FTs are shot.
