No.  StoreDescription can only know about one meta tag.

But you can say:

  PropertyNames meta_description
  PropertyNameAlias meta_description body
  PropertyNamesMaxLength 250 meta_description 

If you want to call it "swishdescription"

  PropertyNames swishdescription
  PropertyNameAlias swishdescription meta_description body
  PropertyNamesMaxLength 250 swishdescription

But that will not do exactly what you want -- as it will use both if both
are found.

If you want to do that I'd just do

  PropertyNames meta_description body
  PropertyNamesMaxLength 250 meta_description body

And then, say, in your CGI script do something like:

   my $desc = $props{meta_description} || $props{body};
