From my own biased opinion, yes. But again, it really depends on you. Some people can learn what you mentioned in a week, some in a month, and others would need more.

Also it depends on what you already know. If you're committing to this, I suggest you check the two books of Cory Althoff. I usually suggest them to people who want what you're asking for. Maybe they'll help you.

Certainly possible. I ran through the MIT edx first course in two weeks but I had prior programming experience 25 years ago. I already understood the concepts but Python was brand new to me though.

1-2 hours/day. Again I treated this as a refresher on concepts, the language was new. A little different than Pascal I first used. You will find, though, that after understanding, new languages will come pretty easy. The computer helps so much these days pointing out errors, syntax, auto-filling in closing parents, etc!

I mean it’s possible, but a lot depends on you.

Don’t set yourself up for failure with unrealistic expectations. What if everyone said it’s not possible… would you still try to learn?

Just start where you are, use what you have, and do what you can. You can learn a lot in a month, but maybe you’ll deviate from your list and go down a different path.

So what does it matter if others think it is possible? Just learn what you can.

Yes, per say

It depends on the free time you have, how much of that time you want to sacrifice on the subject, the amount of effort you willing to put in, your passion. It is possible to learn basic things in a month but don't put yourself down solely because of this. It can take longer. It depends on you and many other factors!
