yes,clean and spray paint them with fabric paint
Use a textile paint - sold on line. Otherwise your cushions can be stiff and the paint could crack. Good luck.
The painting instructions Janice shared are great. The one thing Ihave been sure to do first, is to thoroughly scrub cloth with soap and water let thoroughly dry a day or two and then paint.
If the cover zips off and can be washed and dried so much the better. If it’s sewn on and can’t be removed from the stuffing or foam, be sure not to saturate it as the foam can take a while to dry. Usually is the cushion are made for outside the stuffing is tolerant to getting wet and should be fine. But paint will be more uniform and same color all over id the cushion is clean. Spray paint if you can. Rustoleum makes a great fabric spray paint. The best way to use spray paint is to place item in a box with an end cut open and all the throw off paint will stay inside the box, not on you and the yard. Have fun. Love to see after pics.
You can, but I don't recommend it if they are in full sun. You don't want the paint to get soft and possibly ruin clothes. I would make simple slipcovers for them instead, using terrycloth towels/bath sheets, fleece, or heavy duty curtains/sheets
