Can this be done? If so, how?

I want to create a very basic Form.

That operates just like this....

http://www.assessment.ucf.edu/assessment_archive/assessmentarchive.aspx

To understand how I want this to operate... choose
Plan Year-> 2010-2011
Program Unit->Pick any

In short this simple form operates like this

Auto-Populate Drop Down List 1
Depending on Choice for Drop Down List 1, Populate Drop Down List 2
Depending on Choice for Drop Down List 2, Populate HTML for corresponding Article

I would like Chronoforms to provide this functionality if possible by:

1. Populate Drop Down List 1 with all Child Category Names from #_categories, based on the ID of a Parent Category (SELECT title FROM #__categories WHERE parent_id = "ID of parent category")
2. When an item is selected from Drop Down List 1, Drop Down List 2 is Populated with the names of All the Articles in that Child Category from #_content (SELECT title FROM #__content WHERE title = "Title From Drop Down 1")
3. When an item is selected from Drop Down List 2, get article HTML from database and display below form. (SELECT introtext FROM #__content WHERE title = "Title from Drop Down 2").

Very simple in theory, not sure if Chronoforms can handle this?
