Answer 1

You can't do it all in one query, but you can do it all in one transaction if you are using a transactional store engine (like InnoDB). This might be what you want, but it's hard to tell only using the information you provided in your question.

START TRANSACTION;

INSERT...;
DELETE...
UPDATE...;

COMMIT;
