can i use pollen from a feminized autoflowering plant on a feminized photoperiod plant to create feminized photoperiod seeds, or will some be autoflowering seeds?

How would a feminized auto help you in making seeds? ( my mind has just been blown ).

In theory if you get male flowers on a fem auto then yes you could use the resulting pollen on any other female plant.
However back crossing and stabilisation techniques would need to be used to successfully create a stable genetic strain that either does or does not carry the auto trait.

@OP: yes you can (as jondamon said assuming you reverse the female to get male flowers) and you likely won't get any autos (unless there is auto genetics in the photoperiod plant's parents).
The reason for those results is that the ruderalis auto flowering trait is recessive. Recessive traits only show up when they are homozygous, which hence they are in all autos. Cross them with a photoperiod (dominant) and the recessive auto trait will be in some (edit: all) plants, but won't express itself.
If you however cross the seeds you get from these, that second generation will include autos again. If you'd actually want to create all autos:
Auto is aa
Photo is AA (unless auto in its parent, then it could be Aa)
Crossing AA with aa (Punett square) gives only Aa, i.e. photo is dominant.
Cross those Aa and genotype result is 25% AA, 50% Aa, and 25% aa. So 75% photo pheno, and 25% auto pheno. Cross two of those autos and you will get all autos.

i was going to spray it with collodial silver, turning it male

well not turning it male, but produce pollen

auto and photo will bring mixed seeds unstabl
