Yes to both.  Emptying and rotating are very different though...

To empty a particular log, use:

  :> /var/log/the_log_file

The logs get rotated by /etc/cron.daily/multicron-d .  If
you don't mind updating the system time and running the
savelog-sh-httpd script at the same time, you should be
able to run:

  run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily

or:

  /etc/cron.daily/multicron-d -d

to rotate the logs.  Both are untested; use at your own risk.
