The two trains you'd need to catch from Sapporo to Mashu station alone would be 6+ hours each way, (and that's assuming the seasonal buses start up again next year). Short of flying from Chitose to Membetsu and getting a rental car, practically impossible to do it in a day.

Unsure of your intention to visit Kussharo lake in deep winter, not much to see and hardly any visitors at all. It is not impossible to do a day trip, it just sounds very rushed. I visited a few years ago, but not on a day trip. I took a train to Mashu station and then a bus to my accomodation near the Kusharro lake. There were only 2 of us in the bus; the bus stopped for 15 minutes in Sunayu bus stop allowing ample time for us to enjoy the lake and the swans. As we were the only 2 passengers, the driver gave us a pleasant surprise, he made an impromptu stop at Kotan onsen, which turned out to be the highlight of the day! We felt so lucky to have met Takasaki- san, the driver, and were very grateful for his kindness. The bus stopped at our Hostel, and once we dropped off our luggage, we went back to enjoy the Kotan onsen, a magical place to visit in deep winter.
