Can a monotheistic hindu or sikh be noahide?

Noahidism - Wikipedia
Basically - non-Jews who follow Judaism but in a manner specific to their non-Jewish status. According to Judaism, historically, Noachidism came before Judaism.

Be your own guru
Speaking for Hindus - No. We have many Gods and Goddesses. We differ from the first law (Do not worship idols). Idols (or images of Gods and Goddesses are very dear to us.
I don't believe so. One needs to accept that Judaism is true, which negates those religions.
Not without converting, so then they wouldn't be Hindu. Could a Noahide become a Hindu?

Sorry. My question was only to point out that the OP had a false assumption in it. I knew what it was, but I just don't think folks should assume that others know the definitions that are unique to a particular faith. If I use 'moksha' or 'samsara' or 'sushumna' in anywhere but the Hinduism sub-forum, I would likely define them, unless I forgot.
According to Chapter 1, Article 1 of the Rehat Maryada, to be a Sikh, a person cannot hold allegiance to any religion other than Sikhism. For that reason, a Sikh cannot follow the Torah and the teachings of Rabbis alongside the 10 human Gurūs and the Gurū Granth Sāhib.
I doubt a monotheistic Hindu could simultaneously be a Noahide. Perhaps @Rival could answer these questions:
Can Noahides call HaShem by names like Hari, Rāma, and Omkāra?
Can Noahides recognize Hindu scriptures as having authority in religion?
Can Noahides celebrate Hindu festivals and keep fasts on the Hindu Calendar?
Hard no on all of these.
