Yes to the router. Not sure about the hinges but it's not hard to square the
corners after you have the bulk routed out.

Hi,

I'm terrible with the chisel and wondering whether a router can be used
to make moretise cuts for hinges. I imagine that you would need to have
curved corners in the cuts. Is that so? In that case, do there exist 1
1/2" hinges with curved corners?

Many thanks in advance!
