Its hard to get a job in public accounting, take it from someone who didn't get a job, not from 2 responses from people who got an offer.

Yes you can do it, but expect difficulty. Large over supply of accountants, and demand is falling.

I did a tax internship at a smaller firm, and I think the experience was key in getting into a government auditor position. I worked at a smaller firm, and I worked about 20-30 hours a week. I was in a graduate program, so all my classes were at night, but I was allowed to switch days whenever I wanted if I had schoolwork to be done.

I would say look for something non B4, they are much more flexible.
