Yes, and maybe, in that order.
Another option to the TS is a 1/4" straight bit in a router, guided by your All-In-One. You'll need to make approximately one pass per 1/4" of thickness, which makes the process slower, but you'll get a beautiful cut. The 1/4" bit wastes twice as much wood as an 1/8" saw blade but since you can take the panels directly to final size, the total wasted material is actually less.
(For the 25-odd years in which I did not have a shop building and worked out under the big shade maples in the back yard, my router was my "table saw.")
