Can I put two large screws with spring toggles, or similar, into the wall

I would use the screw-type plasterboard fixings.

IME these are very good on walls but SFA use on ceilings where the
tapered profile ensures the weight is taken solely by the spiral /
helical worm, YKWIM. And once it goes it goes.

So, anyway -go for it.

I have used these to hang radiators on the walls, and the radiator
weighs more when filled with water than any of the mirrors we have (and
that includes a mirror we have which is real plate glass and a heavy oak
frame).
