Is it possible to create a custom web control like this?

I have a need for a web control that will display scanned tiff tax bills
from government agencies. These come in various formats, some a single bill
per page and some multiple bills per page. For both single and multi-bills,
the tiff image
will show in a picture box and the data entry will occur in text fields to
the side of the bill.

Here's what I would like. Data entry rows and columns to the left, tiff
image in
the middle, and, for multi-bills per image, a slider to the right of the
image with a focus bar
to cover the current bill in the image box. This bar would be a colored
(light grey, blue, green, etc.) translucent overlay thick enough to cover
the current bill. Furthermore, its thickness would need to be easily
adjustable insofar as different agencies will have varying numbers of bills
per page on multi-bill pages.

As text is entered into the data entry fields is completed and tabbed to the
next row, the bar and slider (which can be adjusted manually, if desired)
will automatically advance to the next bill in the image so that focus is
retained.

I know this can be done for a WinForm control, but am not sure it can be
done (or at least easily done) for a WebForm control.

Does anyone know if this is the case?

Yes this could be done using a web control. The
System.Drawing namespace has functionality to allow
access and processing of the TIFF file and associated
meta information. All other things are strait forward.
This would take a guru .NET programmer 2 to 4 weeks to do
it properly.
