Actually I take that back, it might not be, I've no idea how difficult
it is. :-/  But it's definitely possible to cut vorbis files.  From
the vcut man page:

       vcut reads an Ogg Vorbis audio file and splits it at the given
       cutpoint, which is a sample number.  If the cutpoint is
       prefixed with ’+’, the cutpoint is an integer number of
       seconds.

It's part of the vorbis-tools package.
