Hello. sorry I have taken so long to answer. Yes you could do both places in one day, it would be a long day as just getting from bus stop to castle is a walk that takes 1/2 - 1 hour walk. But you it would depend on how long you plan to stay in both places and which direction you are coming from. We were staying in Poprad and the buses were not that frequent, so you would have to look up timetables to determine if they link up.
If we arrive at the castle after hours, can we still see and enjoy the outside of the castle? (We will be driving from Krakow to Budapest in the afternoon) Thanks!
