1. You'll be able to do it in three months.
2. You'll be able to do it within three months.
☞ I actually heard that "in" has two meanings.
But, in this context, can the two mean essentially the same thing? Let me know the nuances between them.

You are right they are both correct. However the nuance is that the first sounds a little more formal. Also I tend to think that doing it "within 3 months" feels like it is quicker than taking a full 3 months

@LeeKevin to be honest most people will say in conversation the first one. You rarely hear people say in a conversation "within 3 months" it's usually only written down in more formal text.
