Can I have my sleeves shortened?

I am currently looking at some Borrelli shirts on shop the finest. The chest and back are my size in the slim cut, but the sleeves are way too long. I normally wear around a 33 in sleeve, but the sleeve length on almost all of the borrelli shirts are around 35.75 in.

Is it possible to have the sleeves shortened if they are that much longer than what length I wear?

Yes, they can be taken in at the cuff or at the shoulder. Shoulder is more expensive but preserves the geometry near the cuff.
