Not using only that set of commands, no.  You can, however, use the
clip.text command to put whatever string you want into the keyboard.

To launch the commands, you could, for example, do the following:
1) Open the Config dialog box.
2) Create a command bar on the Command List tab.
3) Add several items to the bar.  For each item, specify *clip in the "enter
command" box, then select Text in the "clip action" drop down, then put your
predefined text into the "Enter text to put on clipboard" box.
4) Under the Key/Mouse tab, set up a hot key.  In the "Enter command" edit
box, select "*Menu".  Select "Show" in the "Menu Action" dropdown.  Select
the bar you created in step 2 in the "select command list" dropdown.
5) Hit OK.
6) Hit your hotkey.  You'll get a menu of items from step 3.  Each item will
paste into the clipboard the pre-defined string.

That's one way.  You also could define hotkeys that each copy a string into
the clipboard using the commands define in  step 3.
