Yes you can. Not difficult at all. Been there done that.
I want to convert a model 12 target to 7mm WSM or SAUM. I know the correct push feed SA boltface does not exist. Can I get my gunsmith to cut down the 'tail' on a long action magnum boltface so it will fit the short bolt ?

Do I need to change the baffle and the firing pin as well ?
No on the baffle.
With the firing pin you will just need to adjust out your protrusion. In the fired position you need .035"-.040" sticking through the face.
