Does anyone know if it is a good idea to lubricate tonearm pivot points? If so then what should a person use?

Are you using a ball and race, cone and cup, knife edge, unipivot, hydraulic or other type of bearing?
Only if the manufacturer recommends it. You can build up a lot of gunk by improperly lubricating a bearing. It sounds like you are talking about a unipivot. If this is the case you would be trying to lubricate an upside down bearing, the lube is going to wind up all over the place.
