Realistically, especially if it's not on a Saturday or Sunday. But on weekends you can visit the relics and the miraculous icon - there are two queues, you can get into both of them at once. You can go and have lunch, there is a nice refectory.

It's quite possible! You should also go to Savvino Storozhevsky monastery. In Zvenigorod. There are his holy relics. You can stay there overnight and then go to matins. It's divine.

You can. I used to work nearby, I'd go in after work. Stand in line for 2-3 hours. While you're standing, you pray.

Of course you can. It takes a few hours, but it's real. Been there a few times myself. As luck would have it.
