Can a blade like this be sharpened by someone like me?

No. A job for the saw doctor. I would guess you could post it off to a sharpening service, or ask a friendly joinery shop when the saw doctor's van comes to collect and return cutters.

They can... you can get sharpening gadgets for them, or some people use a their table saw to do it - usually with a old saw blade with the teeth ground off, and abrasive stuck to the side of the blade, plus a jig you support the blade to be sharpened on a sled that rides in the table saw slots.

Loads of youtube videos on various techniques.

The only price for sharpening a 100T blade I have come across was £18 + VAT so for that blade would be better mended with a new one.

Yes. With a diamond file, provided the teeth are not chipped or damaged. 100 teeth will take you some time.
