Yes, most likely.

Time dilation is weird.

I personally don't believe it's understood enough to definitively state things like that.


Say we have two objects in deep space. The difference in speed between the two is .9 the speed of light, or just really really fast.

Which object is the one experiencing time dilation, and which is the object no experiencing it?

Well isn't time dilation something that supposedly happens to all objects once in deep space?  So wouldn't both be experiencing it, but just one would experience it more than the other?
