Multiple Button Presses = Super Move. Possible?

Hi guys,
I'm looking at using GameSalad for a 2D Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat styled fighting game which will be a tie-in with my recently released feature film.
What I'm wondering is whether it's possible to do moves like Ryu's fireball with game salad, e.g assign four button presses in sequence to a single move. For example, the fireball sequence is down, down/right, right, punch. Can this be done?
Also, seeing as I don't want to fill the iPhone screen with a six button controller, is it possible to assign different moves depending on how long the button is pressed? For example if the player taps the punch button, the play jabs, hold the button a little longer, the player does a slower but harder punch.
I don't need to know HOW to do this just yet as it's early days, just wondering if it IS possible.
Cheers!

By the way, the movie is here, if anyone is interested.

But the game is also a tie-in with the another movie here:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Killer-Robots-and-the-Battle-for-the-Cosmic-Potato/143183849362
So, the game will more than likely be entitled "Captain Amazingly Incredible vs the Killer Robots".
I think the biggest hurdle ahead of me is fitting that title in an App Store icon!!! Hahaha.
