Is there any way of using LongClick and Touch events together on the same object?

Yes:
B4X:
Sub Panel1_Touch (Action As Int, X As Float, Y As Float) As Boolean 'Return True to consume the event
   Log(x)
   Return False
End Sub
Sub Panel1_LongClick
   Log("long")
End Sub

I tried this and it does not seem to work. The LongClick event does not happen as soon as I add a Touch event Even with Return False.

I'm afraid that this thread is outdated because the 'standard' Touch event has no return variable anymore.
But you can handle a kind of LongClick event in the Touch event routine.
B4X:
Sub Globals
    Dim pnlTest As Panel
    Dim Time0 As Long
    Dim x0, y0 As Float
    Dim LongClickTime = 500 As Long
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    pnlTest.Initialize("pnlTest")
    Activity.AddView(pnlTest, 0, 0, 100%x, 100%y)
End Sub

Sub pnlTest_Touch (Action As Int, X As Float, Y As Float)
    Select Action
    Case Activity.ACTION_DOWN
        Time0 = DateTime.Now
        x0 = X
        y0 = Y
        Activity.Title = "Down"
    Case Activity.ACTION_MOVE
        Activity.Title = "Move"
    Case Activity.ACTION_UP
        If DateTime.Now - Time0 > LongClickTime AND X - x0 < 10dip AND Y - y0 < 10dip Then
            Activity.Title = "LongClick"
        Else
            Activity.Title = "Up"
        End If
    End Select
End Sub

Attached a small test program.

Best regards.
