I want to drive a 2 wire transformer off of a 5 volt supply but i have seen these kind of transistor oscillator to drive it. Is there any way of driving a two wire transformer in an oscillator like this?

Or maybe yes...

I meant it has 4 wires in total, the primary and the secondaryIf your "transformer" only has two wires, it probably isn't a transformer.
Its a 120v to 5v transformer, im planning to use it on reverseHow big is the transformer you are wanting to drive; what are its ratings?
I believe the answer is here.You need to give more details of your transformer and your application to get a proper answer.
A LMC555 (cmos 555) astable plus a power FET driver is one possible option.
