Not in one go, but cut, turn, cut, turn and you’ll be through it that way.

Yes if you have a deep cut sliding mitre saw capable of cutting 240mm. All mitre saws will say what their limits are

A mitre saw with a capability of cutting to a depth of more than 240mm in a single sweep is massive. my one will only do around 220mm
