Hi @regnisier,

As far as I can see, not directly. It’s not just about adding multiple files to the artifact, it’s also about having an update module on the receiving end which can handle those appropriately. So you probably need to create a custom update module with the required logic. Maybe basing off the `single-file` one is a good starting point, see [Single File](https://hub.mender.io/t/single-file/486)

Hope this helps,  
Josef
