It is a very common installation type. Just choose manual disk partitioning, when install. Create / partition on your SSD and /home on you HDD. Do not forget to set mount points correctly.

Yes, It is possibile. When you install ubuntu choose 'Manual partitioning': - Create a new partition in your SSD and select as mountpoint '/' - Create a new partition in your HD and select as mountpoint '/home'
If you want further information about partioning and mountpoints: help - Partitioning issue or Partitioning/Home.
