Removing paint from wood floors

So I tore up some carpets in this house and found some wood flooring underneath that seems pretty salvageable. Whoever rehabbed it before us was really sloppy with their paint job and left paint all over the floor, and actual coats of it near the trim. Is it possible to remove this with some sanding? Maybe a 20-30grit? I’d love to get these floors back in action! I’m planning on doing a dark stain to help hide some blemishes, but the paint is a big issue.
