Everything is achievable in theory.

In practice, step 2a *alone* will probably take you a lot longer
than a month (I've worked on such a reconstructor, and would estimate
2 (mythical :) man-years of effort to write one from scratch).

OTOH, it you don't need "all possible" trees to be correctly
reconstructed (i.e. you only care about a handful of hand-coded
inputs), then this might be doable in a week or two.

Also note, that the code after optimization may not be easily
convertible back into C++, only to "lowered" C (I never looked at
optimized IL, so don't know for sure).

Cheers,
