I have a clogged toilet, I've tried plunging but it won't free it up.  If I remove the toilet to free the clog, can I reuse the wax ring?

No.  Never re-use the wax ring.  Get a snake ( router tool), and snake it out.

Yep, you need to snake it...   some people call it a "closet auger" and you can rent them..
