Yes, you can do a day trip to Kamikochi. There are regular buses via Hirayu, it takes about 2hrs each way from memory - look at the Kamikochi website for details/links. There are a few flat hiking loops that you could do if visiting for the day. Most of the other hikes need overnight stays, unless you are a hiking demon, and can smash steep climbs.
It is nicer to stay overnight, when there are less people, it is quiet, and you can watch the sunset and sunrise.
You can continue on to Matsumoto by bus or bus/train if you want to go that way.
