Can you be accused of murder in a war?

Technically you are killing (murdering) lots of people and being sanctioned by your government to do this.

If you're doing this en-mass, which horrifically is the definition of success, then it is almost inevitable that unintended people die as a consequence.

Of course the winning side always accuses the loosing side of murder after the war, but that aside, can you be considered a murderer during a war?

Caveat, asking these "thought experiment" questions should highlight the absolute pointless, ridiculous, futile nature of all wars.
