Yes, this is possible for windows and linux executable files.  BAT
files are just text files, so reliable detection is not possible.

Docs on writing signatures can be found here
http://www.clamav.net/doc/latest/signatures.pdf

As for what to use for a signature, executable files have a few
bytes near the beginning of the file that identify it as executable
to the OS.  Look at the "file" utility included with linux and the
"magic" database that "file" uses for what to use for a clamav
signature.

Have fun!
