You don't need to connect it twice, you can just use else.

Also, tools don't have the IsEnabled property. Use the variable isEnabled instead. (Alternatively, you can use light.SpotLight.Enabled instead)

local tool = script.Parent
local light = script.Parent.Light

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	light.SpotLight.Enabled = not light.SpotLight.Enabled -- opposite
	
	if light.SpotLight.Enabled then -- true
		light.Color = Color3.new(0.972549, 0.85098, 0.427451)
		light.Material = Enum.Material.Neon
	else -- false
		light.Color = Color3.new(0, 0, 0)
		light.Material = Enum.Material.SmoothPlastic
	end
end)
