Default fail2ban - multiple regexes in one directive?

I'm using Fail2ban package 0.6.0-3 with the Apache directive
enabled.

At present only the default failregex is active. I would like to
add another failregex to try to block known apache hack attempts
that are showing up in my logwatch[1].

Is it possible to have 2 failregexes under the [Apache] directive
in /etc/fail2ban.conf? Eg:

[Apache]
enabled = true
port = http
logfile = /var/log/apache2/access.log
timeregex = \S{3} \S{3} \d{2} \d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2} \d{4}
timepattern = %%a %%b %%d %%H:%%M:%%S %%Y
failregex = [[]client (?P<host>\S*)[]] user .*(?:: authentication failure|not found)
failregex = \"GET /scripts/root\.ex\e?/c\+dir\" 404

Or do I need to add another eg [Apache_2]?

I've seen a site where they have iptables rule with '-m string'
matching some of theses .exe hack/crack strings, but my iptables
doesn't have the 'string' option.

Or should I disallow in apache config? I didn't think necessary
because they're 404 errors anyway, and it'd be better to catch
them before they even get to apache?
