I want to make the outside ligth fixture tun on and off based on schedule / wifi switch enabled.

There are 4 switches. lets call them from left to right, 1,2,3,4.
1 is the one i need to convert to a wifi switch, its for two outdoors lights each with 4 bulbs (one of them is pictured here). also - 1 doesnt have a neutral wire on it! (side note, the 4 lights in each fixure NEVER all work, they keep switching which ones want to be lit, i dont know why, sometimes they all work, sometimes different one lit. they dont flicker, only when i turn them on the behave different)
2 and 4 control about 4 ceiling lights inside the house, they have neutral wires.
3 controls the chandlier.nit has aneutral wire.
1,2,4 - are on one circuit breaker. 3 is on a different one.

looking at 1 you can see the two light fixture nuts wires coming in.
looking at the cluster of white wires - i assume those are neutral wires?

my questions:
A. can i remove the neutral wire from 2 and give it to 1? is it safe? will it break anything?
B. should i buy a short patch wire and connect it to the white cluster of what are i assume neutral wires and plug it to 1? or is there a good reason 1 never got a neutral wire given the light bulbs and 2 fixtures involved?
C. can i work on this setup without turning off the circuit breaker for 3? i need the light plus i cant really find it so far.
