Is it possible to derive 2 columns that contains only weekdays (dates and day) but excludes public holidays?

eg if 4th July falls on a Wednesday can I derive a column automatically that lists like :-

July
2 Monday
3 Tuesday
5 Thursday
6 Friday
9 Monday

instead of

July
2 Monday
3 Tuesday
4 Wednesday
5 Thursday
6 Friday
9 Monday

Thank you
