There's "technically possible", "Sousuke can do it with no prep work" and "Sousuke can do it in combat, in poor light".

As for Sousuke's precision, remember that he's an elite soldier who fought since he was 8 years old (and trained as an assassin in some kind of secret section of the KGB since he was 4 or 5 - yes, freakin' four or five years old - revealed in Voice from the North), in various environments, using different techniques and equipment, so yeah, he prolly knows where a spot like that is and how to aim for it.

An elite soldier or whatever would know how to reliably cut someone's throat. How to stab someone in the neck without killing them is a different skill.
