I need mill two face of the "not cylindrical pieces", is it possible with fusion 360?

I tried to use 2D milling or the winding works but I can't understand how to rotate and calculate the paths on the various sides

If I understand you correctly, you want to index to each side of your part on your 4th axis.  If that is the case, then you will need to turn on "Tool Orientation" found in the geometry tab.
