Yes... but only in the same way that you would usually execute multiple
functions in sequence (by seperating them with the end of statement
character ";")

The value of the onLoad attribute is interpretted as the body of
the onload function. Like any other function, it can contain
several other function calls, separated by semi-colons:

onload="f();g() ;h()"

Event driven systems like web pages and other GUI interfaces generally
don't provide a sleep(). You always want to be able to detect mouse
and keyboard activity. Instead, you use setTimeout() to schedule some
code to be executed after a delay (specified in milliseconds):

onload="f();g() ;setTimeout('h( )',60000)"
