A: 

Absolutely! If you have "separate pages" that make up the whole of your website, you would be better off to include these pages on your XML site map. Remember that the purpose of the XML site map is to help search engines understand what content is available on your website - PDF's included!

Don't forget to optimize your PDF's for better results!
