Can chemical reactions involve multiple steps?

Yes, and many do. While some chemical reactions may only involve a single step, others may involve ten or more elementary steps. Of course, chemists working in different subfields may have different definitions of what constitutes a step of a reaction, depending on what aspects of the reaction they focus on.
