Multitouch on one object and multiple objects

Guys is it possible to have multitouch set up so I can have touches focused on one object so for example on a rectangle I can create several physics touch joints and spin it around etc.  BUT then I can also pick up another separate rectangle with finger 3 and move that around too?

Seems to be the difference between display:getCurrentStage():setFocus(event.target) (multi touches on one object) and display:getCurrentStage():setFocus(event.target, event.id) (single touches on multiple objects)

But is is possible to achieve both??
