Simple answer is yes. You are most of the way into doing either so do both.

Unless getting the tools out and finding a chance to work on your car is problematic I would just do the wheel bearing for now. You might save 10 minutes doing both together but if the kingpins don't need doing you're adding an unnecessary hour and doubling the cost.
