No, the "main" electric pump is in the drivers side. No motorized pump in the right, just a jet pump that transfers fuel over as you drive. If the left pump goes you are done. Each side does have a level sensor though.
If you want to learn about how jet pumps work and can't find the info with an internet search let me know.
Here is what your design looks like.

Yes the jet pump can fail. Normally getting clogged if I remember the most common issue. Can try to clean it. Generally people have issues with the senders which get contaminated. Most Forum users put Techron in the fuel system to preclude that or to actually clean up a problem sensor. I use it for sure.

True story. 
I also prefer to use Chevron or Texaco gas on a routine basis when possible, as Techron is part of the additive package in Chev/Tex gasolines. If no Chev/Tex stations in the area when traveling, I will at least stick to a Top Tier gas such as Shell, Exxon, BP, Mobil, etc. Bottles of Techron concentrate are sold at pretty much all AP stores, and a full bottle added at oil change time is a good idea.

Here is a good review of the system design. Does not work the way you might think with 2 tanks.
Most people would think in a performance car the tanks would feed gas so as to balance the weight distribution, but not so.
Read paragraph 4. May explain some funky gauge reading changes when first driving the car after the car it has sitting for some time.
