Yes, most motherboards these days have connections for at LEAST four USB 2.0 devices. In addition to this, USB is a scalable connection so using hubs it's possible to connect up to 255 devices to one USB port (realistically the performance will be terrible, so you should limit yourself to about 10 per port). So yes, you can easily have that many ports off one system.
Companies make 4 port, 7 port and even as high as 40 port USB hubs.
