I wish.  Unfortunately, it's a single certificate, signed by a single
CA.  Which itself can be signed by another single CA, and so on until
the "trust anchor" is reached.  This is a single "certificate chain".

There are issues with having only a single certificate chain available. 
Most notably, if your CA becomes untrusted, you must change your CA and
entire presented certificate chain.
