No. One primary key per model.

You might be able to do it with a custom field type and fair bit of
code. However, this is definitely not the approach to take if you are
just starting out.

Instead, just let the primary key be the default one Django provides you
with. You can have another property or method on the model that creates
your combined value that you can use for other purposes. Trying to
overly control the primary key almost always is not necessary.

What is the problem you are really trying to solve here?
