You can say both.
example: Soll ich besser leben oder wohnen sagen?
Soll ich lieber leben oder wohnen benutzen.
But I would say if talking about language rules we would use "Muss ich..."
Muss ich hier wohnen oder leben benutzen.
Was muss ich hier sagen; wohnen oder leben?
or you could simply say.
Was ist richtig? Leben oder wohnen?
