Yes, IANA time-zone names have (IIRC) no limit on how many /-separated components (of up to 14 characters each) are used. I note in passing that, while the 14-character limit is indeed documented in the IANA DB's rules for names, those rules do include a "grandfather" clause for names in use before the rules were formulated. I haven't stopped to check whether that actually affects the grammar, but it might be constructive to look through the IANA DB for any names that violate the rules. I have, also, seen some platforms violating the 14-chracter limit in some of their idiosyncratic names for zones, notably Android has a Canada/East-Saskatchewan zone, with a 17-character component.
