Long Range Attack & Multipoint Weapons

Long range attacks allow you to play multiple attack (red) die to hit a target several squares away.

The destroyers' special ability, Multipoint Weapons, states:

An attack die roll used by a ship fitted with Multipoint Weapons ... may be used twice consecutively to ... fire up to 2 squares away, following the directions indicated by the die roll for each square crossed.

So, essentially, you spend 1 red attack dice to hit a target up to two squares away, obeying the directions on the dice rolled.

My question is, can you use the destroyer's Multipoint Weapons ability with multiple attack die, and chain together a very long range attack? For example, I roll 2 diagonal attack die, and I have a destroyer with an enemy ship 4 squares away diagonally. Could I play the two red die, with each one counting two squares per Multipoint Weapons, and attack that enemy ship four squares away?

Thank you!
