If the song's key is d# minor does this mean it's equal to e flat minor therefore it's 2A at the Camelot Wheel. I'm sorry it's just a yes or no question but couldn't find a proper answer

Not really equal, but you could do a good transition from D# minor to E# minor
Yes you are correct.
To make the answer more than yes or no though......
Most keys can be noted as a sharp or flat. The exceptions are B and E are never sharp, and C and F are never flat. Why? Because B#=C E#=F Cb=B & Fb=E.

D minor is 12A not d# minor and E# minor is F so therefore it's 4A. Am I right?
This!
I use the circle of fifths over the camelot wheel because I'm trying to learn the physical keys and not just numbers. I use RE3 to key my songs and write everything as sharps as opposed to flats. I made my own circle of fifths with all sharps...this might be helpful for you:
The no was for you sayin they aren't equal. They are exactly the same key (D#m & Ebm).
There isn't and E# in music it's called F.
The transition you are talking about on the Camelot system would be 12a Dbm to 2a Ebm, or what you were actually saying was 2a Ebm(D#m) to 4a Fm(not really but E#m). And yes either would be an ok transition as they share most of the same notes in their scales.

Thanks for your helps and the wheel
Spesh, cudos for trying to learn the actual theory!
The circle of fifths is just one way of relating two keys though. To me the best way to learn is on a piano keyboard where you can see the the whole steps and half steps from note to note in the scales.
The fifth is the fifth note of a scale and also the third note in the chord of the root note. Ex: C E G are the notes in a Cmajor chord, G B D for a G major. See the fifths progress C G D.
