Yes, using more condition tags based on autho...@count, for instance like this:
<$authors.normalizedna...@firstobject/><$autho...@count=0?>
<$autho...@count=1?>
<?$autho...@count=2?>
and <$authors.na...@secondobject/><?$autho...@count=3?>
, <$authors.na...@secondobject/>, and
<$authors.na...@thirdobject/><?$autho...@count?>
, <$authors.na...@secondobject/>, <$authors.na...@thirdobject/>, et
al.</$autho...@count?>
BTW, you should use "authors", not "pubAuthors".
