Can I deduct my health insurance premiums on either the federal side or state side as a deduction if they are pre-taxed?

No, when your insurance premiums are pretax, that means you have not paid tax on the amount of the premiums, so you have already gotten a tax break on them.  You cannot get another break by deducting them again.
