Yes you can adjust the hinge in. You loosen the bolts that hold the upper hinge to the door and slightly move the door in and retighten the bolts. Close the door carefully and check to make sure it isnt hitting anything. It might take a few tries to get it adjusted right. Just go a little bit at a time.

Would this be the hinge to body or hinge to door bolts?
And do the ones on the lower hinge need to be loosened also?

Hinge to door bolts.
You shouldn't have to loosen the lower bolts.
