Can you use a metal cutting circular blade to cut hardwood flooring?

Susan J asked:
Laying tile in my foyer. The hardwood floor is curved that butts up to where the tile will go. We want to straighten out this curve so the tile will be more uniform. The problem is we can’t see the nails that are in the hardwood floor until we get to them with the saw. Can we use a metal cutting saw blade to cut thru the wood and the nails in the hardwood floor?

The safe side of the only thing that you will never be able to get straight line like this will never be satisfactory at all on the cut odds are that happened was the line like this will help to do you wont hit any nails but if you do you nice clean edge ive cut so the only thing.
The cut line is in case metal cutting blade will not work and give you want to have spare blade and then cut through nails accidentally.
