No, you cannot nest motion_blur objects.  You can, however, put all of you
action into one single motion blur object without much difficulty.

motion_blur{
  union{
    object{myObj1 rotate 0.5*x*clock} // myObj1 rotates
    object{myObj2 translate 0.5*y*clock } // myObj2 moves
    scale .1*clock // the whole union scales
  }
}
