Is it possible to make a diagonal /circular sweep instead of just horizontal or vertical?

Sure you can.  Do you have a specific application in mind?  Post a screenshot or the file so we can see exactly what you are want to path your sweep along.

You should be able to do that with an In-Place Modeled Sweep.  Post the file so I can get a better look at it.

You can do a sweep in pretty much any direction you want fyi... yours seems pretty straightforward though so an in-place sweep might be enough, as @barthbradley mentioned.

Not Wall Sweeps. But you can draw it using in-place model sweep and pick 3d edges for the swept path.

Architectural Tab=>Component=>Model In-Place.  All the modeling tools you need are right there. Same workflow as modeling a Loadable Family.

...tell you what; post your RVT and I'll put an In-Place Modeled Sweep in it and return it to you for your examinination.  Free of charge. 😉
