In most cases, with the correct tools and methods you can. However it can affect draft and cooking depending on the design of your oven, and how much you enlarge it.

If you have fired it, it will cut like terra cotta. Buy one of these: http://www.homedepot.com/p/QEP-10-in-Carbide-Rod-Saw-Replacement-Blade-for-Cutting-Ceramic-Tile-10013/100028526#.UcsG2tKkqss

and take your time.
 
keep an eye out for scorpions and black widows. But the tiny ads are safe.
