A friend of mine called wanting to know if I could reload 45-120 his with my 45--70 dies.
Is that possible?

I think in that combination you will run out of thread before seating out far enough in the press for that combo to work. Graphs has 45-120 Sharps straight dies on sale now but not many left https://www.grafs.com/catalog/category/categoryId/4383

5744 powder would be a good one for it if you can find it.

Is that possible? I have done it, you won’t get the base resized but if your not shooting a full house load you can get a few firings before the base swells to the point you can’t shove it in the chamber.
