Can the following steps be done with one macro?  1. Equip a bow  2. Fire the bow  3. Equip a different item into the ranged slot

You can't do it with one macro because of the delay required between changing out equipped items. You'd have to do two macros, one to equip and fire, another to change back to the other item you want.

I'm really not sure about the ranged slot, but you probably can't.

You can swap ranged weapons in combat just like primary and secondary slots.
