I don't recall any rule saying that you can't but it would make a difference in the electrical power on the leg you put it on. Another consideration would be the initial surge of power when the motor kicks in.
It might be better just to run a new line for the light bulb.

Hi all, I have a deep well with a submersible pump that runs on 240V. Could I safely install a 10W light bulb on one the 2 normally open 120V volt legs that go to make up the 240, or do I have to keep the same exact load on both legs. The reason that I want to do this is that I have a remote security camera and when I'm away I could check the light bulb to see if my pump is active when it should be irrigating the landscaping. Thank for any advice, Ed
