Sure. They are called multi-stage Custom Filters if you want to search.  

(I find it useful to tag the results. That lets you switch from the slow complexity of a multi-stage to just quick filtering for the Tag.)

https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Example_filters 

Some day that you aren't on such a tight deadline, you ought to explore the FilterParams add-on. It make working with multi-stage custom filter far quicker. But exploring 1 new feature at a time makes it harder to get lost!

the United States, and do not have an immigration event. Is there a way to
apply two custom filters to a search?
