Can a Task trigger update an object twice removed from it?

So I have a task trigger that triggers after Insert if the subject is a certain thing and attached to a quote.  It then updates a quote field to show that the Quote was sent.  I would also like to update the opportunity status when this happens and if possible I would like to do it without a second trigger.  Can I do this?  Here is my current trigger.  I tried updating the list with opportunity.id and the updating part with the Opportunity.stage but just received errors.

 

Thanks,

Amanda
