[Star wars/MCU] Could Yoda absorb/redirect Thors lighting like what he did with Palpatine?

Can Yoda only control Palpatine lighting because its Force lighting or could he control any force like an explosion?

The difference here is orders of magnitude. The most we see Palpatine do with Force lighting (in Disney canon) is electrocute some people. Meanwhile Thor's lightning took down many multiple giant space whales and he was using it to punch through Thanos' landing craft.

Yoda has not shown the ability to redirect firepower of that magnitude.
