Is the A-10 capable of dogfighting?

Can you please elaborate on the capabilities of the A-10 Thunderbolt II in terms of dogfighting? I've heard conflicting reports on whether or not it's suitable for this type of combat. While it's primarily designed as a close air support aircraft, does it possess the maneuverability and weapons systems necessary to engage in aerial combat with modern fighter jets? Additionally, how does its performance compare to other dedicated fighter aircraft in this regard?
