Can you bird mouth cut rafter to the inside of wallplate
Probably, but will you lose any overhang for a soffit?
A birds mouth is designed to hold wall at a specific location.
If u are cutting rafter without an overhang, u have to make a seat cut to sit on top of wall.
A birds mouth that is cut from inside of wall will only weaken the rafter.
A birds mouth that starts at inside of wall and is cut toward the ridge board serves no perpose.
