Yes but it will be slow and painful (if the person is alive).

With a lot of work you can saw a leg off with a hacksaw. You may wish to cut away the fat and muscle of the leg first but it does a fine job on the femur. Perhaps a bone saw would be more to your liking. These implements were used by surgeons during the Civil War.

Hacksaws are meant to saw metal with fine tooth serrations. I do believe flesh and bone is softer than metal. Check with your doctor to see what kind of saw they use to saw amputees.

I just tried it & yes it did. As I now sit here with 1 leg, I am pondering are yahoo points really worth it?

sure it can it can saw thru metal so surely it can saw thru the much softer bone with ease although im sure it will be terribly painful with a lot of blood and gore.

As long as the blade isn't too dull... sure. Getting through the skin, fat and muscle is easy... the bone is kinda challening, though.

Yes, and depending on the blade used it can be slow or fast

You sure can. It worked for me!
Edit
It is a movie question, last scene of Mad Max.
