I'm writing a setting for some fantasy novels, and came up with an idea about weather and climate.

The world i'm imagining has an elliptical orbit around a binary system, giving it basically 2 suns. My question however regards the seasons cycle. The way i've drafted it is that such a planet would perform a complete orbit around the suns in 4 years.

By year i mean a cycle of 12 months, with 4 seasons.

Now, as the planet reaches apoapsis it would enter a "winter year", meaning a year with 4 season, but far colder, and as it reaches periapsis it would enter a "summer year", a year with higher average temperatures, and inbetween those years, a spring and fall years, in which temperatures get progressively warmer and colder respectively.

Would such a setup be possible?
