Can not be answered as stated.

First have to define what is "assassination" and then cover legitimate military targets.

Is it possible to "assassinate" a military target?

Ah, time for the SJAs to chime in.

EO 12333, part 2.11 Prohibition on Assassination

No person employed by or acting on behalf of the United States Government shall engage in, or conspire to engage in, assassination.

The EO was updated by EOs 13284, 13355 and 13470 - none changed part 2.11.
