Is it possible to return derived field such as month of the date using query entity rather than creating views.. Any thoughts?

You can perform simple aggregation calculations with query entity, but you can't return a derived or formatted field like you could with, say, a SQL statement. Unfortunately, as Phil outlined, you'll need to return the data then perform the manipulation you need - or create a view. Good luck!
