Yes ,why not ? Teachers are already in school when the pupils are at home doing prep work or whatever ,what's wrong with doing that work as part of the working week .I am confused as to why you think it so awful to be in school when the pupils are at home

Our education system is totally different now compared to what it was .We no longer require children to work on farms during harvest season so why the hell do the children need to be off for such long breaks.By spreading the terms out more evenly across the year and increasing the contracted hours required of teachers they would have more time to do stuff .Trying to cram a years worth of education into 195 days is ridiculous in this day and age .
Actually it's only 190 days as 5 of those days are non contact days
