Not easily. You could do a post-build update of the MSI to insert the custom action into the sequence table via MSI's SQL (the SDK provides a VBS file that will allow you to do that).

Unfortunately, it looks like what I thought was going to be a very simple install has turned out to be outside the scope of what WiX can do. I have a merge module from a third party that we use in our software, and in order to properly consume the merge module, I need to be able to add a couple of its custom actions to my install's InstallExecuteSequence. Is there any way to accomplish this in WiX without going to the merge module provider and telling them to schedule the custom actions on their end? When I compile, I get the following error because the custom action's name cannot be resolved: error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol 'CustomAction:SaveInstallSN.3E7D3842_1372_4852_A9BC_F88647DA132E' in section 'Product:*'.
