Can I mount a camera inside with a view through a window to record outside?

No... the sensor for the PIR detects IR or reflection  of same...most glass does not allow IR to pass thru.

 

Also as a side note, if live viewing thru a glass at night, the IR illuminators will reflect back off the glass and wash out picture.

 

But, they are waterproof and can be placed outside.
