Yet he is also fully human. When Jesus was conceived, the Father decided that He would become one with that person in Mary's womb. The Father was never separated from Jesus except during the time of His death until His resurrection.
During His earthly life, the Son could think and feel like a normal human being but since he didn't have a sinful nature, He did not have a tendency to sin. Technically, he could feel the pull of temptation but he never yielded to it. He had a human will as well as a divine will. Yet he was and is one person.
Can we separate or dissociate "will" from "person"?
Does oneness theology say that there are two wills in the person of Jesus Christ but only one of those two wills is divine?

You have two persons
Yes you can distinguish Will from Person. Will is an attribute of Nature
He has a Human nature and He has the Divine nature. He has a Human will and He has the Divine will
