Yes: In some circumstances delivering radiation therapy more than once a day may be used to shorten the course of treatment or modify the side-effects of treatment.

Yes: Although it is the exception, radiation therapy is sometimes administered more than once a day. The most common schedule in my experience is one treatment 5 days a week. A radiotherapist can answer your question the best,however.
