Is it reasonably feasible for a company like AMD to decap a processor and count?

The KGB compromised US intelligence officers over decades for less money than Intel spends on a single advertisement. If knowing some internal details is going to make a huge difference, it is absolutely doable for basically any corp to compromise another's secrets.

Legally? No. AMD wants Intel hardware nowhere near their R&D people.

I doubt looking and counting under microscope is illegal. Also, not to learn from successful competitor's product would be very foolish.
