Yes. Change the stencil so that it is a composite stencil.

I would recommend \deadNote, since it only applies to the next note.

I haven't reviewed the code carefully, but I think that \palmMute should
apply only to the next note, and \palmMuteOn should change all notes to palm
mute notes, or \palmMuteNotes could apply to a whole music expression.

I don't like the \chord* notation because they aren't limited to use in
chords. They will work for any single note, won't they?
