Yes, it can be easily visited in a day trip from Osaka or Kyoto; however, personally I think that the overnight stay at a temple is the top attraction which you will obviously miss if you visit in a daytrip.

What are the attractions that not to be missed?

You should not miss Okunoin, Kongobuji and the Garan:

It is possible that it will snow. Temperatures can fall below freezing during the nights, but are probably above zero during the day.
