Yes. God forgives all who sincerely repent of their sins and seek, with the help of His Grace, to sin no more.

Absolutely. Jesus died for all sins, not just the "lite" versions. True repentance is the key.
It might interest you that we have a very interesting example. Dr. Bernard Nathanson was the Abortion King. He was one of the founders of the National Abortion Rights Action League, and contributed to the legalization of abortion in the US. By the peak of his career, he had performed more abortions than any other abortionist in the world, and was quite proud of this fact.
Dr. Nathanson was of Jewish heritage, but was an atheist at heart during his career as an abortionist. He thought that the very idea of God was foolish and he saw no reason doubt what he was doing and found it very profitable.
After the invention of the ultrasound, he and some of his peers were curious and decided to use the machine to film an abortion in progress. This film was later named "The Silent Scream" and it so deeply affected everyone in that room. For some it was the last abortion they ever participated in. Even Dr. Nathanson found it hard to continue.
Within a short time after that, Dr. Bernard Nathanson, atheist and abortionist, found God and is now Pro-Life. He has gone on to write a book called "The Hand of God: A Journey from Death to Life by the Abortion Doctor Who Changed His Mind".

Malachi 1:11 "For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name [shall be] great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense [shall be] offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name [shall be] great among the heathen, saith the LORD of hosts."

Let's not forget that St Paul presided over the murder of St Stephen before being invited to become an apostle.
Did you really need to ask this question,Flos, or were you just providing food for thought? :o)
